Yes, Teslas Are Smart, But They Aren't "Drive You Home When You Pass Out" Smart

from Doc's Dumb Dumb of the Day · host MWC

Kimberly Brown was found asleep in her Tesla AND in traffic on a Florida Interstate shortly after 2 o'clock in the morning. That's where the vehicle stopped after Kimberly hit autopilot and closed her eyes. The car does that when it detects the driver isn't aware enough to take control. Kimberly was not, she was twice the legal limit and really sleepy. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
