A U.S. judge has ordered a Tesla driver to pay over $23,000 in restitution for a 2019 crash that resulted in the deaths of two people. The case is likely the first U.S. felony case involving a partially automated driving system. This incident comes amid reports that Tesla drivers have the highest accident rate of any auto brand. A study cited by multiple sources, including Forbes and the Associated Press, indicates that Tesla ranked first in accidents per 1,000 drivers, with a score of 23.54 accidents per 1,000 drivers. These findings challenge Tesla's claims about the safety of its Autopilot feature, raising questions about the reliability of automated driving systems.
