Tesla has promised its robots will reduce risk for people, and NC police are seeing the opposite results first hand.

“When we got behind him with our lights and sirens activated, it didn’t faze him, he didn’t wake up,” Wright said. He said one of his colleagues drives a Tesla so knew what to do. “He knew if he got in front of them, it would activate a sensor on the autopilot and that would wake him up,” Wright said. Investigators found vape pens, some of which were laced with methamphetamine…

The charges for the drug delivery robot included reckless driving.

“He drove about a mile before we could get him to stop,” said Chief A.Z. Williams. “You get drunk drivers, that’s pretty regular. Never quite seen this before.”

One must presume the next drug run by this organization will use a Tesla “summon” feature instead so police won’t have an obvious reason to stop the car (sleeping driver) or anyone in the vehicle to charge.

Add Chinese-funded “bulletproof” models to the drug delivery robot designs from Elon Musk, and police will be especially challenged to stop him from poisoning society… just like how his Russian-funded Twitter robots are known now to be engaged in destroying America.
