NTSB Claims Tesla Preemptively Publicized Details In Fatal Crash

Why should we expect Tesla to operate legally/ethically with the NTSB?

Why should we have expected Tesla to take the NTSB's previous suggestions seriously?

Tesla is an unethical and immoral company.

I hope Huang's survivors sue Tesla's living ass off for Tesla's role in the wreck.

Yes, Huang was negligent, but Tesla inculcates in its owners that the company is infallible and actively creates a false sense of security in the use of Autopilot.

If there is relevant safety information, I would rather hear it right away then let it get manipulated for weeks by government bureaucracy.

Because Tesla is always so truthful and has nothing to gain by trying to spin the information?

Relevant safety information: Don't use Auto pilot on Tesla, it can kill you.

would have been nice if Elon had led with that statement.

Relevant safety information: RTFM, keep your eyes on the road when you are using Autopilot.

So SJD if one has to keep their eyes on the road and hands roughly on the steering wheel doesn't that mean that Tesla's system is really automatic cruise control? Indeed, with ACC one has to steer which forces one to stay alert, ergo is a safer system.

You only need to touch the wheel every few minutes or so, you just need to be ready to take over if needed. The Model 3 has an interior camera, I'm sure they will use that similar to Cadillac where you won't have to touch the wheel if you're paying attention.

This is NONSENSE

Since when is there a law that requires you to keep information like this a secret? In the past - that would be called a coverup - so not releasing it is wrong too? I am not pro TESLA - but in this case - they did EXACTLY what they should have done.

If you look to the PAST HEADLINES of AUTOSPIES - you will find that months ago - Tesla released a statement saying that their cars are not to be driven unless there is DRIVER in place ready to take control when needed because the system is not completely Autonomous. THERE is such a statement in the owners instructions as well. The "driver" here should have been ready to take over in this case too. Most states that allow use of the system also require a "driver" available to take over as well. Yes - TESLA has intimated that their "Autopilot" (A wrong term) - can operate the car safely in most conditions - even said that it would in some cases be better than a human driver- but even TESLA backed off calling it a complete autonomous system long ago.

Intelligent HUMANS already understand that no computer system can be programmed to consider ALL POSSIBLE situations - because it is being programmed by humans in the first place. In many situations - it is perfectly acceptable. However - things do go bump in the night - in ways people never ever expected - and these are by no means rare (Read the newspapers and laugh). If you are not intelligent enough to KNOW that - you probably should not be "driving" a car yourself - much less allowing a car to drive itself.

Google it TomM. Investigate the NTSB and their protocol.
