Tesla that hit and killed Seattle motorcyclist was in 'Full Self-Driving' mode, police say - Channel News Asia

Quick Summary:

SAN FRANCISCO :A Tesla Model S car was in "Full Self-Driving" mode when it hit and killed a 28-year-old motorcyclist in the Seattle area in April, police said, making it at least the second accident involving the technology on which Tesla CEO Elon Musk is pinning his hopes.

Tesla's rivals such as Alphabet's Waymo also uses expensive sensors like lidars to detect the driving environment.

That case remains under investigation, but experts say there are limitations to Tesla's technology dependent on cameras and artificial intelligence.
