NHTSA probing yet another death caused by Tesla’s FSD, which is still vaporware 5 years after Musk wrongly predicted 1 million $TSLA robotaxis will emerge in 2020 🤣

Elon has said that he’s “fucked” if Trump doesn’t win.
He frames this as political. But the reality is, he is committing all of these crimes. Elon needs an ally in the government to prevent him from being prosecuted for all of these various murderous schemes.
If some retard wants to die in a Tesla car, that’s his right, but when you start killing pedestrians, you’ve crossed the line into an area where no one can defend you.
The US government’s road safety agency has opened an investigation into 2.4m Tesla vehicles with the automaker’s Full Self-Driving software after four reported collisions, including a fatal crash.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on Friday said it was opening the preliminary evaluation after four reports of crashes when Full Self-Driving was engaged during reduced roadway visibility like sun glare, fog or airborne dust.
Five months before NHTSA stepped in, I noted in May 👇 that Tesla FSD failing due to sun glare is not a good omen for robotaxis — why Musk could not demo robotaxis in a real city and leaned on Hollywood’s wizards to help him pimp fake robotaxis in a fake movie studio city 😂 https://t.co/mDXIJWx6Di

In one crash “the Tesla vehicle fatally struck a pedestrian. One additional crash in these conditions involved a reported injury,” the NHTSA said.
The investigation covers 2016-2024 Model S and X vehicles with the optional system as well as 2017-2024 Model 3, 2020-2024 Model Y and 2023-2024 Cybertruck vehicles.
The preliminary evaluation is the first step before the agency could seek to demand a recall of the vehicles if it believes they pose an unreasonable risk to safety.
Tesla says on its website its “Full Self-Driving” (FSD) software in on-road vehicles requires active driver supervision and does not make vehicles autonomous.
…
Last week, Musk unveiled Tesla’s two-seater, two-door “Cybercab” robotaxi concept without a steering wheel and pedals that would use cameras and artificial intelligence to help navigate roads. Tesla would need NHTSA approval to deploy a vehicle without human controls.
Tesla’s FSD technology has been in development for years and aims for high automation, allowing its vehicle to handle most driving tasks without human intervention.
Aside from killing people, he’s also scammed investors, severely.
His presentation last week was completely fake. Neither the robotaxis nor the robots were real, they were theoretical displays, and he has made no progress towards developing either.
He regularly lies to shareholders about new technologies that he’s just on the cusp of releasing, and yet, he’s not even developed a proper self-driving car, something the Chinese did years ago. He can’t even manage to reverse engineer the Chinese cars correctly.
He belongs in prison.
BYD will sell 4 million vehicles this year. Musk will sell <1.4 million Teslas though he will claim a fake number because he lied about 50% YoY growth to boost $TSLA stock to hit compensation package targets, inflate paper wealth. Like Trump, Musk is a gigantic business fraud 🤥 https://t.co/FjMbAMkzOs
