Seems like most of the Tesla shills haven't really made it over to the fediverse yet, so that's nice.

David Clough, 18, was behind the wheel of a 2016 Tesla while traveling eastbound on I-76 in Plum when he "lost control" due to the car being on Tesla's Autopilot mode, according to a crash report issued by the State Police. Clough was cited for careless driving.
Looks like it's from about 4 days ago. That's pretty new in my book.
I want to know if the “autopilot” (adaptive cruise control) was disabled before impact so that the driver was found at fault. Despite Tesla disabling it way after the point the driver can properly react and correct the situation
