Summary
Keep Me Logged In The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) said they are sending teams to investigate a fatal crash in Florida on Friday involving a Tesla car and a semi-trailer. The NTSB said in September 2017 Tesla lacked proper safeguards that allowed the driver "to use the system outside of the environment for which it was designed and the system gave far too much leeway to the driver to divert his attention." In January 2017, NHTSA said its review found no evidence of defects in the 2016 fatal Autopilot crash that would require a recall.Got a confidential news tip?
