Tesla 'Autopilot' crash which killed Chinese driver shown in new footage

This is the terrifying moment a driver was killed when his Tesla car crashed into a parked lorry while the futuristic vehicle was reportedly in'autopilot' mode. The incident took place in China in January when Gao Yaning, 23, collided with the back of a road sweeper vehicle in the northeastern province of Hebei. It was previously thought a crash in Florida in May involving a Tesla Model S in semi-automatic mode was the first fatality in one of the company's vehicles. Another Tesla crashed in China in August after a driver mistakenly switched on the autopilot believing it to be a'self driving' mode. The footage shows the car driving along at speed along a road, seemingly without any problems, until it ploughs into the rear of the road sweeper.
