Not a lot of details yet. Should be interesting to find out what happened.

I think we should wait until we see what the logs say. Was autopilot really on? Was it accidentally disabled by hitting the brake? Etc.
Also, mods, you might want to move this thread to autopilot or at least Model X since it wasn't a Model S involved in this case.
More importantly, was the driver adequately supervising the vehicle...
Lots of people are going to blame autopilot. Doesn't make it so.
You two are preaching to the choir here on TMC about how to use Autopilot. The truth has little to do with anything and is almost irrelevant. What I'm concerned about is not us here on TMC. I'm starting to worry about mounting bad press, followed by uninformed public opinion causing opportunistic politicians to potentially step in and start grand standing about how we need more regulations to protect us from the big bad auto companies trying to force "dangerous" autopilot systems on the unsuspecting American public...
No, there was a rollover crash of the Model S as well. It generally involves exceptional circumstances, generally leaving the road at some sort of angle (e.g. down a steep embankment to the median). It's nearly physically impossible to guarantee something won't roll over unless you strap a large amount of buttered toast to it.Is this a first time ever that a Tesla "rolled over"?
"Autopilot did it" is going to continue to be a handy excuse until enough of these folks get exposed by the Tesla logs that folks figure out it not a good tactic.
Well one way would be by subpoena.How do people get exposed by the Tesla logs?
How are the logs publicly available and verified?
