Tesla Veers Into Oncoming Traffic In Germany, Causing Head-On Collision Killing Three

https://www.zerohedge.com/technology/tesla-veers-oncoming-traffic-germany-causing-head-collision-killing-three



Having driven in Germany for many years I know the road markings indicate one side is a dual carriage way and the other a single road. The Double white lines mean keep to your side of the road, like everywhere else in the world. If the Tesla was on the single side of the road it could assume it was on a breakdown lane and cross over to the dual lane again assuming the Dual lane was 2 normal road. The scary thought now is why did it not detect the other car coming towards it and head right. Why did it play chicken with the other car?

If the other car was overtaking correctly and the Tesla came on to the other side just at the wrong time. Maybe

Another curious part, why did the cars end up near each other on the same side of the road? I would expect if a Head on collision even a glancing blow the cars momentum to carry them away from each other in the opposite directions. - Obamaism666
