Tesla autopilot doesn't notice a tractor trailer, fatal crash
Tesla’s Autopilot being investigated by the government following fatal crash | Ars Technica
Sounds like tractor trailer turned left through oncoming lanes, and Tesla autopilot drove right into it without applying brakes, car went under trailer and driver was killed. Presumably decapitated. Tesla says autopilot did not notice the white trailer against the bright sky.
I thought the Tesla has a front facing radar?
