At first there was talk of a distorted use of the Autopilot ended with tragic consequences. After all, it would certainly not be the first time that we have witnessed similar events. Elon Musk also intervened very soon on the matterwho had made it known that the car did not have Autopilot enabled.

PRELIMINARY REPORT OF THE NTSB

Following the accident, several investigations were launched to actually understand what had happened. Now, & egrave; a first preliminary report from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has arrived which finally allows us to understand something more. According to what emerged, the security camera of the car owner's home clearly shows the man getting into the driver's seat with his friend who is in the driving seat. instead got into the front passenger seat.

The Tesla Model S then departs and travels 550 feet (about 168 meters) before crashing. The impact damaged the battery of the vehicle from which it was built. started the fire that killed the two people. Regarding the use or not of the Autopilot, the NTSB has carried out a simulation . The result is; that on that stretch of road only adaptive cruise control could be enabled but not the Autosteer function. Both are required for the Autopilot. It seems, therefore, that Elon Musk was right.

But from here on, the investigation will be “difficult”. Indeed, the fire destroyed the on-board storage device located in the vehicle's infotainment console. However, the module that records the speed data vehicle, the state of the seat belts, the acceleration and the opening of the airbags, & egrave; been recovered even if & egrave; damaged. This module will now be; analyzed to see if & egrave; can recover the data contained.

C & # 39; & egrave; therefore still much to discover and above all we need & agrave; understand why & eacute; front is not; none found. The investigation could take a very long time. Probably you will need & agrave; wait at least next year to have the final report that sheds light on the real dynamics of the accident.
