Tesla worker killed in fiery crash may be first ‘Full Self-Driving’ fatality::undefined
Really tragic story. I wonder if the driver would have been able to get out of the car if he wasn’t drunk. The passenger indicated that the driver side door was blocked, but the passenger himself had no problem getting out on his side.
Von Ohain and Rossiter had been drinking, and an autopsy found that von Ohain died with a blood alcohol level of 0.26 — more than three times the legal limit — a level of intoxication that would have hampered his ability to maintain control of the car, experts said.
If FSD can’t get me home when I’m drunk, what good is it?

What? There have been other fatalities before this one. Some of them were almost identical in fact, which shows just how seriously Tesla takes this whole thing. They should be learning from every crash and making sure it’s not repeated.
