This thing needs to investigated given that lots of these drivers are being too complacent with this auto-pilot beta software functionality.

It has proven to be very unsafe to use on the roads and is putting the lives of other drivers at risk.



Teslas crash less often than other cars, even less when Autopilot is enabled. You just hear about it more often because it's actually news when it happens, as opposed to some idiot texting while driving in a Camry.

Substantiate your claim with sufficient, unbiased and relevant evidence first.

I also think you meant ‘supposed to crash less often’. But it is clear that this system (FSD or autopilot) is even more unsafe than advertised. Otherwise it would not be currently under investigation by the regulators.

False advertising and deception seems to be working for Tesla’s customers. Maybe it is for Tesla’s own good for their autopilot beta software to be under close investigation.



Of course a source from Tesla would say that. I explicitly asked for ‘unbiased’ sources and instead you have given me this. The evidence needs to be from unbiased sources.

Might as well ask a Tesla salesman, which car brand should I buy?
