3. Cite Tesla driver for causing the accident for slamming on the brakes for no reason as the driver admitted.Hypothetical. Suppose a Tesla get's rear ended and local LE is called. Now add the Tesla driver saying "I was using Tesla AutoPilot and it just slammed on the brakes for no reason", how would the officer respond?
1. Irrelevant. Following vehicle still was following too closely. OR
2. Maybe I need to tell my boss and let 2 billion other people comment on whether this is worthy of further consideration before writing this citation.
Maybe an easy case for an ambulance chaser given the big name? Then again, my experience is limited to late night TV.
4. slightly different than the above... Tesla driver failed to maintain control of the vehicle(that they are supposed to maintain control of) and caused crash
