According to a local report, a Tesla crashed into an autopilot mode early Wednesday morning in a patrol car of a Michigan gang.
The car, which was driven by a 22-year-old man, hit the police vehicle in the Lansing area around 01:10 when the troop responded to another car that hit a deer, reports WLNS-TV.
No one was injured in the crash. The Tesla driver received two quotes for driving with a suspended license and the failure to move over.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has sent a team to Michigan to investigate.
This is the second time in less than a week that a Tesla has crashed in the state. In the first incident in Detroit, authorities said the driver did not appear to be using the car’s steering wheel, according to WDIV-TV.
Tesla had earlier said that the car driver and ‘full self-driving’ are driver assistance systems and that the driver must be ready to intervene at all times.
The National Transportation Safety Board has criticized the company for not keeping a close eye on drivers to make sure they pay attention.
