NTSB Confirms Tesla Driver Exceeded Speed Limit, Overriding FSD in Fatal Texas Crash
The NTSB confirmed that a Tesla driver pressed the accelerator to 100%, overriding the Full Self-Driving (FSD) system, leading to a fatal crash in Texas. The driver faces manslaughter charges, and the victim's family has sued both the driver and Tesla, alleging negligence.
The safety board confirmed Tesla's account of the crash, which the company shared days after it happened last month.
