I’m not knowledgeable of this incident, so let’s assume I accept your argument that it was the drivers fault (seems likely enough).

Are you also arguing that Tesla didn’t withhold data, lie, and misdirect the police in this case, as the article claims? Seems to me that Tesla tried to look as guilty as possible here.

The driver was found 2/3rds at fault, Tesla 1/3rd.

I agree with you that doesn’t matter when it comes to covering up/lying about evidence.

They could have been 0.5% at fault. Doesn’t mean that was ok.
