Did the driver know his car would not stop for stop signs? If he knew it wouldn't, then Tesla obviously is innocent and all blame lies with the driver.

    And that was a valid defense when he was sued for the wrongful death? Or in his criminal case?

    He obviously did know, and yet we are talking about it. Not stopping at every stop sign and red light is pretty obvious behavior. This wasn't the first stop sign the driver encountered in the Tesla.

      > This wasn't the first stop sign the driver encountered in the Tesla If the Tesla just blew a stop sign there wouldn’t be a suit. My Subaru has collision avoidance. It markets this, albeit somewhat carefully. If the collision detection-and-avoidance system straight up didn’t work, and I got injured in an accident because of it, I’d hold both the driver and Subaru responsible. Because they sold me a thing that they claimed would do something it didn’t. Tesla’s collision-avoidance system was marketed as an autopilot that didn’t need human supervision except for legal reasons. It didn’t work. And it failed in a way cars with collision-avoidance radars probable wouldn’t have.

      Do you actually know this is not the first stop sign they drove through on autopilot?
