It’s possible many of these collisions are caused by other drivers.
I mean even parked cars get hit by drivers every day.
There is a bit of news hysteria effect happening here.
- eclipxe 7y agoThere’s literally only two examples in the post and one is an example of the car stopping before a collision. The other example is another car backing into the Tesla.
- patcheudor 7y agoIn the first video from the article, the Tesla would be found to be at fault in most jurisdictions as the driver backing out was well into the backing out maneuver before the Tesla even rounded the corner. The Tesla without question did not have the right away at that point.
