Tesla investigation NC | Feds probe crash involving Tesla that hit North Carolina student getting off bus, driver has been charged

So, there’s this crazy article about a Tesla that hit a kid in North Carolina as they were getting off the school bus. Apparently, the driver has been charged and the feds are investigating the accident.

From what I gathered, the Tesla was in autopilot mode when it hit the student. The driver, who was sitting behind the wheel at the time of the accident, claims that he was checking on his dog in the backseat and didn’t see the bus or student until it was too late.

Now, I’m not one to judge, but who in their right mind checks on their dog while driving? It’s just common sense to keep your eyes on the road.

Anyway, back to the article. It’s scary to think that something like this could happen with autonomous vehicles. As much as we want to believe that they are the future, accidents like this remind us that we still have a long way to go in terms of perfecting the technology.

It’s important for companies like Tesla to prioritize safety and make sure that all their vehicles are thoroughly tested before hitting the road. Hopefully, this investigation will shed some light on what went wrong and prevent similar accidents from happening in the future.
