Tesla driver Dave Key continues to use Autopilot even after he got into an accident with it, The New York Times reported. The 69-year-old crashed into a police car while using Autopilot in 2018. The Tesla driver said he had a "false sense of security" during the incident and was distracted by the scenery. Key isn't the only Tesla driver to report issues with the software but continue to support Elon Musk's vision for the company. Insider previously reported that a Tesla driver took a 6,392 mile road trip primarily using Autopilot and FSD and continues to view the program as a "lifesaver" despite encountering bugs in the software.

In June, NHTSA upgraded to an engineering analysis its defect probe into 830,000 Tesla vehicles with driver assistance system Autopilot and involving crashes with parked emergency vehicles. NHTSA is reviewing whether Tesla vehicles adequately ensure drivers are paying attention.

That complements its standard "Autopilot" feature, which enables cars to steer, accelerate and brake within their lanes without driver intervention. Last month, NHTSA said it had opened two new special investigations into crashes involving Tesla vehicles where advanced driver assistance systems are suspected to have been in use.

CNN —Federal regulators want to know what Elon Musk meant in a Tweet about disabling driver alerts on Tesla’s “Full Self Driving” driver assist system. On December 31, Musk replied to a tweet by @WholeMarsBlog that said “users with more than 10,000 miles on FSD Beta should be given the option to turn off the steering wheel nag.”“Agreed, update coming in Jan,” Musk replied. NHTSA says the issue falls under the agency’s existing investigation into the performance of Tesla’s driver assist systems. “The investigation opening was motivated by an accumulation of crashes in which Tesla vehicles, operating with Autopilot engaged, struck stationary in-road or roadside first responder vehicles tending to pre-existing collision scenes,” reads the summary of the investigation which opened in June. The federal inquiry into the tweet was first reported by the Associated Press.
