"Tesla rear-ended another car while on autopilot" is an immediate red flag in any discussion about car accidents. It shows that the writer is about to launch on a rant with a clear agenda, and this is an argument in which facts, logic and critical thinking are not going to be welcomed. You were upset that someone hit you, that's fair. You then swallowed the at-fault driver's story hook line and sinker, and now instead of being angry at the other driver for being negligent you're angry at the NHTSA for not Taking Me Seriously™. 11/10 to the at fault driver for such skilled deflection where she managed to not only avoid responsibility for her mistake but amplified your rage to the point that not only did you absolve the at-fault driver and blame the manufacturer of the car they were driving, but you are now angry at a regulatory agency for not taking immediate, decisive and visible action on a single word of mouth report. TL;DR: you've been played. Double check the contact details the at-fault driver gave you.
