Did it. That’s the narrative released for media reporting.

Or did AP do the steering? That’s a material difference. One that separates the common cruise control narrative people are familiar with, from the AP paradigm. AP I’m not even familiar, much less expert. Cruise control all of us are expert.

Even if the paradigms are equivalent, the unanswered logical is “How can one human be so stupid?” He effectively drove the car off the freeway at full speed; down the off ramp and into an intersection w/o pumping the brakes! That’s what the media expects me to accept.

It simply is unbelievable. But I understand one side of the narrative expertly. Only LEXUS WOT(wide open throttle) accident similarly reflects this accident. That instance researchers proved that the quality of materials in the throttle contol mechanism were defective. Resultant wire strands provided an electrical pathway that short circuited Cruise control, ignition and turning either or both the car and Cruise control off. Tgat killed a CHP officer his wife, daughter and friend.
Press brake. Put car into neutral.

Any of these things would snap Autopilot out of service. In the car you're describing, brakes should have, but might not stop it. But disengaging the transmission would have.

IDK, that Tesla exit from freeway WTF happened. It’s a mystery, as crazy as the LEXUS crash when that made no sense either. Lexus drove the media narrative that the driver carpet pad stuck the gas pedal to the floor. Lexus never retracted their assertion after finding the electrical fault.

The faulting of the Tesla driver is an un-believable story. SO really like to chase this similar accident to Lexus’ to ground.
