At the time, I was unaware of a full dossier with additional allegations, which led some to accuse the New York Times of withholding that information from me. However, the article clearly stated that it was my "initial reaction" to those allegations, not a complete analysis.

idk, why aren't they getting sued? Seems like liability here would be paramount to fix this abuse, and tech failure.
Tesla Has The Highest Accident Rate Of Any Auto Brand
"What a missed opportunity," said Matthew Wansley, a professor at the Cardozo School of Law in New York. "I have yet to see Tesla, or anyone defending Tesla, come up with an argument for why we should be letting people use [Autopilot] on roads that could have cross traffic. That's how a lot of these crashes are happening."
