In an alarming report, a 21-yr old guy was charged after he was busted for napping at the wheel in his Tesla. Using autopilot, he was cruising at 93 mph in Alberta, Canada, when he was pulled over by the local police. He was driving a 2019 Model S. The incident was reported by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Department. The police confirmed that both the driver and passenger were both asleep, with their seats reclined. As the cops attempted to pull the car over, the electric sedan began to automatically increases in speed to around 95 mph. Eventually, the Model S was pulled over, and the driver was charged. This is only the latest story that raises questions about Tesla's autopilot technology. Elon Musk's EV company has also been under fire for it's cars repeatedly crashing into emergency vehicles. If Musk cannot address these increasingly frequent events, it will likely give opponents an opportunity to close the gap between companies like GM, Nissan, and Porsche, and the clear leader in the EV space, Tesla. Stay tuned for the latest on Tesla autopilot, and all the big stories in the car world.
