Three crashes involving Teslas that killed three people have increased scrutiny of the company’s Autopilot driving system.
Questions surround Tesla crash police say was in autopilot modeThe Associated Press
And on Dec. 7, yet another Model 3 struck a police cruiser on a Connecticut highway, though no one was hurt. Even so, experts and safety advocates say a string of Tesla crashes raises serious questions about whether drivers have become too reliant on Tesla's technology and whether the company does enough to ensure that drivers keep paying attention. Some critics have said it's past time for NHTSA to stop investigating and to take action, such as forcing Tesla to make sure drivers pay attention when the system is being used.
Tesla plans to use the same cameras and radar sensors, though with a more powerful computer, in its fully self-driving vehicles. Critics question whether those cars will be able to drive themselves safely without putting other motorists in danger. “We don't need any more people getting hurt for us to know that there is a problem and that Tesla and NHTSA have failed to address it," Friedman said.
