DVD player found in Tesla car in May crash

Reuters…

  •  A digital video disc player was found in the Tesla car that was on autopilot when its driver was killed in a collision with a truck in May, Florida Highway Patrol officials said on Friday. …
  • A lawyer for a truck driver involved in the accident with the Tesla told Reuters his investigators had spoken to a witness who said the DVD player was playing a “Harry Potter” video after the accident, but the lawyer was unable to verify that beyond the witness account.

Until we have autonomous cars it’s the driver who is responsible no matter how advanced the “cruise control”, a.k.a. autopilot, might be. Here’s hoping a government recall doesn’t happen.
