Calling it an Autopilot system is a bad idea. It is not an autopilot in any way, shape, or form.
Driver assist, maybe, but not autopilot.

Something seriously amiss with this headline.

Apparently, he was also working on driverless cars.

his car's cameras failed to distinguish the white side of a turning tractor-trailer from a brightly lit sky and didn't automatically activate its brakes
Y'know, I've heard that some people actually use their own physical abilities to operate vehicles.

The company was clearly negligent in not putting a big warning sticker on the dashboard

I hate when that happens. I really hate when that happens to a hard man that protected us in such an unselfish way. RIP Mr. Brown.

I saw a Tesla driver a few months ago try to miss a major intersection in our town and gun it through the gas station lot a friend of mine owns to get back on the highway. I thought...what an @$$hole.

Sounds like the Tractor Trailer violated traffic laws.
“Preliminary reports indicate the crash occurred when Baressi’s rig turned left in front of Brown’s Tesla at an intersection of a divided highway where there was no traffic light, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said. Brown died at the crash scene, which occurred May 7 in Williston, Florida, according to a Florida Highway Patrol report. The city is southwest of Gainesville.”
Looks like the Tesla had the right of way, and the Tractor Trailer Owner/Driver has every reason to attempt to discredit it.
To: Hojczyk
Hmmmm, i wonder what they want for the wreck
