It does seem colossally stupid to drive a 79+ mile trip when the meter says you only have 32 miles left.
There are issues with how Tesla reports its charge and maintains it charge, but, seriously, why try a trip that the car is telling you you cannot make? (EDIT: and that's after the car has been over-reporting its range for you the whole time. What, did you think it suddenly flipped the way it makes mistakes??)
ANOTHER EDIT: The writer says in his article: "after an hour they cleared me to resume the trip to Milford." The trip wasn't 79+ miles, it was about 46 + 11 miles. I wonder if it's going to be he-said-she-said about whether he was approved to make the drive.
