Tesla driver in 'Autopilot' crash got numerous warnings
A man killed in a crash last year while using the semi-autonomous driving system on his Tesla Model S sedan kept his hands off the wheel for extended periods of time despite repeated automated warnings not to do so, a US government report said on Monday. The National Transportation Safety Board released 500 pages of findings into the May 2016 death of Joshua Brown, a former Navy SEAL, near Williston, Florida. Brown's Model S collided with a truck while it was engaged in the'Autopilot' mode and he was killed. A Tesla Inc spokeswoman Tesla spokeswoman Keely Sulprizio declined to comment on the NTSB report. Lawyers for Brown's family did not return messages seeking comment.
