Paraphrasing:

"We only have the driver's word they were in self driving mode..."

"This isn't the first time a Tesla has driven onto train tracks..."

Since it isn't the first time I'm gonna go ahead and believe the driver, thanks.

Maybe I'm missing something, but isn't it trivial to take it out of their bullshit dangerous "FSD" mode and take control? How does a car go approximately 40-50 feet down the tracks without the driver noticing and stopping it?
