First-time Tesla owner exploring with my Model Y⚡️












ALERT: 76-year-old grandmother is dead after a Tesla barrels into her home, going almost 70 miles per hour, in Texas. Martha Avila was in her home putting away groceries when a Tesla, alleged by the driver to be on autopilot, zoomed through a residential neighborhood, flew across a homeowner's yard, and barreled into her home. Doorbell footage captured the car smashing into Avila's home, resulting in her death. 44-year-old Michael Butler, the driver of the Tesla Model 3, says the AutoPilot feature was engaged during the crash, and the incident is currently under investigation.












For those unaware, Tesla flashes two different notifications when the accelerator pedal is pressed while self driving is engaged. Blue- Accelerator pedal is pressed but no conflict is present ahead. Red- Accelerator pedal is pressed and immediate action needs to be taken to prevent destruction of property, injury, or death. I noticed red would flash if the vehicle noticed it was approaching an intersection, stop light, or a stop sign and gave me plenty of advanced warning to react.
