<p><pre><code> &gt; I called Tesla recovery who verified that the car was safe and gave me some of the readouts that they had to confirm &gt; what they could see. They could see that all the cameras were clear that morning and the car was not logging any faults. &gt; They assured me they could download the data if necessary and instructed me to take it to the nearest Tesla service &gt; centre within 5 days to get full logs extracted before doing anything else, so that the data isn&#x27;t wiped. &gt; &gt; So I got to the service centre, but the moment I mentioned the words autopilot and collision all sympathy vanished and &gt; she was itching to get me to f*** off. I asked about data, she said they&#x27;d have already taken what they wanted and &gt; that there was no such thing as a &#x27;full-download&#x27;. I asked if they&#x27;d look into it and she said probably not because I &gt; was driving inappropriately anyway and was entirely at fault so no point asking. </code></pre> Seems like a clear conflict of information between what Tesla instructed vs the dealer trying to avoid data collection.<p>Does this mean the Dealer is potentially liable if &quot;the issue&quot; (the crash causing bug) isn&#x27;t found?<p>eg the Dealer caused any needed &quot;full logs&quot; data collection to not happen, so the fault&#x2F;bug wasn&#x27;t able to be identified

The mirror is one thing, but anything&#x2F;anyone that considers passing distance=0 acceptable is, by definition, unfit for driving. The Tesla drove as if the black car did not exist at all, never correcting its distance from the curb (which it did for the previous car).

My experience with Tesla AP: it&#x27;s great for highways, but definitely breaks down on B-roads like this. I doubt Tesla will cover this, since AP comes with a million warnings to not rely on it in such situations.

BETA software in a car that can kill people ... insane.

That game has been around for decades. Patrick Bedard wrote about it in CARandDRIVER magazine once, it&#x27;s called Mirror Tag.
