Tesla's Autopilot Cleared on Florida Crash

Tesla Cleared The fatal crash of a Tesla owner in Florida last year led to an investigation as to whether the autopilot feature was to blame. Regulators say no, the system is fine. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration decided the car, a 2015 Tesla model S, didn't have any issues that could have led to the accident. The car was on cruise control, and the car slammed into a tractor-trailer. The driver didn't brake—but Autopilot didn't brake either. Still, regulators say that the system did not malfunction—even if they haven't decided, still what caused the crash. (Via The New York Times)
