It looks a lot like another case of Autopilot failure, crash and a dead Tesla driver after being ejected (e.g. sleeping without a seatbelt).

One person was killed and nearly a dozen others were hurt in a multi-vehicle crash on I-95 that Miami Fire Rescue called a “mass casualty incident.”

The accident, which involved eight vehicles, happened in the southbound lanes in the area of NW 62nd Street at 2:10 a.m.

According to the Florida Highway Patrol, the driver of a black Tesla sedan was heading south, lost control, and slammed into the concrete barrier wall. The disabled car came to a stop, blocking the roadway.

The Tesla was then struck by a black Dodge sedan. On impact, the man driving the Tesla was thrown from the vehicle and landed on the road.

It has very similar characteristics to other Tesla crashes lately.

The report says the Tesla lost control. However, at 2 am a Tesla typically is on Autopilot, which typically runs into concrete barriers.

The burden of proof should be to show that Autopilot was not being used.

In related news, yet another Tesla just crashed into a fire truck.

A Tesla plowed into a stationary fire truck that had responded to a multiple-vehicle crash on Interstate Highway 680 Wednesday, authorities said.

The Fremont Fire Department said one of its fire engines was on the northbound lanes of traffic at Auto Mall Parkway when it was hit by a Tesla Model Y.

Tesla Autopilot seems to be getting worse and worse.

Tesla is engulfed in flames after a single-vehicle collision in Santa Clara Wednesday afternoon. […] The witness said the driver lost control of the vehicle before swerving left to the intersection.

Another “veered” crash.

For a car company that promised the world it would eliminate car crashes and injuries, Tesla allegedly is quickly causing more and more instead.

And, in related news, another horrible fire without warning.

He said a Good Samaritan driving by alerted them of a fire in their garage. This gave the family enough time to get out before the fire engulfed their home.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation but Cormack told Eyewitness News, he suspects his Tesla is the cause of the blaze.

He should have suspected it sooner. Neighbors should have suspected it sooner. Everyone should have suspected it sooner.

Early morning Tesla crashes suggest the car drifts off the road while the driver sleeps. Let’s call it “veered”. This is exactly what Tesla claimed to investors they would solve, eliminating deaths, many years ago.

Instead, Tesla seems to be getting much worse. And deaths are rising quickly.

Recently I read about cars in Oregon and Michigan. Now California is in the news.

Dhanoa was the driver of a Tesla Y that crashed about 5:30 a.m. Tuesday on Millerton Road east of Auberry Road when he allowed it to drift and strike a culvert, the California Highway Patrol said. The Tesla rolled at least once, CHP said.

The driver, an off duty police officer, was thrown from the Tesla.

The federal safety regulators have highlighted a huge percentage of deaths related to seatbelt resistance.

“One thing we’re seeing in trucking and other sectors is that seat belt usage is going down,” said Polly Trottenberg, deputy secretary of the U.S. Department of Transportation, speaking at a DOT safety forum last week. “And when we look at the fatality numbers they are extraordinarily disproportionately people who are unbelted.”

In 2021, 64% of truck drivers killed in crashes of large trucks were not wearing a seat belt, according to the latest data compiled by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. That compares with 59% in 2019 and 44% in 2020.

Some speculate that decline in seatbelt use is related to political propaganda. Political operatives have tried to whip truckers into an angry anti-regulation suicide lobby group.

…while the [anti-safety] protests are generating a lot of noise and attention, the eruption actually points up a counterintuitive fact: The… far right is weak and ineffectual, especially when it comes to pandemic restrictions.

Seatbelt disuse could be a follow-on effect of vaccination disinformation. It doesn’t generate noise and attention, giving a fraudulent yet hightened sense of control because zero feedback/resistence… before sudden death.

Remember when seatbelts were controversial?

The big reveal from a new Washington Post report is that Tesla engineering leads to a higher frequency of higher severity crashes than any other car brand, and it’s quickly getting worse.

Former NHTSA senior safety adviser Missy Cummings, a professor at George Mason University’s College of Engineering and Computing, said the surge in Tesla crashes is troubling.

“Tesla is having more severe — and fatal — crashes than people in a normal data set,” she said in response to the figures analyzed by The Post.

This is precisely what I’ve been saying here and in conference presentations since 2016. I’m reminded of the graphic I made a while ago comparing Tesla deaths with other electric cars on the road.

And here’s a detail far too often overlooked: Tesla drivers are significantly overconfident in the ability of their car to drive itself because of what Tesla’s CEO tells them to think. There’s no other explanation for why they do things like this:

Authorities said Yee had fixed weights to the steering wheel to trick Autopilot into registering the presence of a driver’s hands: Autopilot disables the functions if steering pressure is not applied after an extended amount of time.

Yee apparently really, really wanted to believe that Elon Musk wasn’t just a liar about car safety. Yee removed the required human oversight in his Tesla because (aside from it being far too easy to circumvent) somehow he was convinced by the con artist in charge of Tesla that it makes sense to significantly increase the chances of a dangerous crash.

And then, very predictably, Yee crashed.

Worse, also predictably, he caused serious harms.

Yee’s “trick” meant Tesla crashed at high speed through bright flashing red stop signs and into a child.

Tesla quickly has produced literally the worst safety in car industry history, the least realistic vision with the least capability, while falsely claiming it was making the safest car on the road.

What a lie. Without fraud there would be no Tesla.

Gabriel Hallevy in a 2013 book called “When Robots Kill: AI Under Criminal Law” famously predicted this problem could end up in one of at least three decisions.

1. Direct liability: Tesla’s car acted with will, volition, or control. The robot would be guilty of the action and intent to commit it.
2. Natural probable cause: The car’s action wasn’t intentional, but “reasonably forseen” by Tesla. They are charged with negligence, and the car is considered innocent.
3. Perpetrator via another: The car was used by Tesla to intentionally do harm. Tesla is guilty with intent, and the car is considered innocent.
