The crash is sure to draw attention to whether growing use of automated driving functions, which may help prevent some accidents, can also introduce new risks.
The Tesla driver had engaged the car’s so-called Autopilot system, a driver-assist mode that can steer and follow traffic in certain conditions. Autopilot had been active for 13 minutes and 48 seconds before the crash and the driver’s hands weren’t on the steering wheel for the majority of that time, according to data Tesla provided to NTSB.
There have been at least three fatal accidents in the U.S. in which Tesla vehicles were on Autopilot.
The safety board is examining safety implications of growing use of #vehicle #automation.
