Tesla driver crashes into patrol car
A 22-year-old man in Sacramento claimed he was sleeping while his Tesla’s Full Self-Driving system was engaged when he collided with a California Highway Patrol cruiser, injuring two officers. The crash occurred on eastbound Interstate 80 while officers were investigating a fatal accident, with the Tesla hitting their patrol vehicle parked behind flares and cones. The Tesla driver suffered minor injuries, while the officers are recovering from serious injuries; the driver was using the non-autonomous system which requires driver attention. The incident raises questions about potential legal consequences and emphasizes that Tesla’s technology is not a substitute for an alert driver. The investigation remains ongoing.
