Tesla has been asked to make a report against these issues but they have yet to respond to authorities.

The National Transportation Safety Board, a separate agency that also investigates plane crashes stated, “no commercially available motor vehicles today are capable of driving themselves, every available vehicle requires a human driver to be in control at all times, and all state laws hold human drivers responsible for the operation of their vehicles. Certain advanced driving assistance features can promote safety by helping drivers avoid crashes and mitigate the severity of crashes that occur, but as with all technologies and equipment on motor vehicles, drivers must use them correctly and responsibly.”
