Asserting it doesn't make it so.
- toomuchtodo 5y agoTesla can defend themselves longer than most will remain solvent ($20B cash equivalents on hand), and I don’t see any case law where driver assist places liability on the manufacturer when it’s clearly communicated the driver is still the final authority (even with Subaru and Cadillac lane assist similar to Tesla). This isn’t supporting Tesla, just an observation of the judicial and regulatory landscape. NHTSA and the states are still allowing end users to run Full Self Driving revisions as we speak. Until a regulator issues a directive or a court an injunction, Tesla will continue in this fashion. Court cases can take years to resolve. Maybe I’ll fork out for an attorney opinion letter on self driving assist feature liability and post it for funsies. Will report back if I do!
