That'll be an interesting court case: the first time a fatality is the result of unactivated safety features on a car that's fully capable of preventing a collision.
- kylec 10y agoTesla has already said that the Model 3's safety features will come standard, though it wouldn't preclude such a lawsuit against the owner if the features weren't activated.
- victorhooi 10y agoThat makes no sense at all. Say Tesla's car could automatically brake if it sees a hazard in front of you. However, you opted out of that optional extra. You aren't paying attention whilst driving, and hit somebody. Who's fault is it? Yours for being cheap and an inattentive driver? Or Tesla's for not forcing you to give them money to pay for a feature you clearly didn't want?
