The case is believed to be the first time that U.S. prosecutors have brought felony charges against a motorist who was using a partially automated driving system.

    The guy was going through a suburb at 75 mph blowing through stop lights. Ofcourse he has to pay, im surprised hes not getting jail time. This has nothing to do with the car, thats just gross negligence

      My tesla doesn’t let me use autopilot or FSD if I set it over 5% of the posted speed limit. How is this guy going 75 in the burbs?

        I wonder if Tesla had this section of road mapped as freeway. Especially since it rolled through a red.

        “Suburb” in LA is a very loose term

        I would think that the guy is just lying, but Tesla would call that out REAL quick.
