A federal trial in Miami is underway to determine Tesla’s liability in a 2019 crash that killed a 22-year-old woman and seriously injured her companion. The driver of the Tesla Model S involved in the incident testified that the car’s Autopilot system failed to provide any warning or engage the brakes prior to the collision.
A New Jersey teen is suing Tesla, claiming the carmaker’s design flaws caused a deadly crash that killed his entire family. The wrongful death lawsuit points directly at Tesla’s safety systems and CEO Elon Musk’s public claims about autopilot technology.
