For those who don't click on the link, the road widened from a single lane into two: a through (left) lane and a right turn only lane in which parking (presumably only at certain times) is allowed. AP centered itself on the new right lane and clipped the left rear of the police Explorer parked at the curb.
Two complete failure of the driver:
1. Engaging AP in that environment.
2. Failing to look at the road ahead.
In the absence of driving-facing camera to track whether or not the driver is looking forward, to avoid future easily preventable collisions and ugly headlines, Tesla should consider geofencing AP to divided highways as it instructs drivers.
Can you separate your posts into two so that I can tag the first one helpful and disagree with the second one.
