Which brings me to this Tesla accident over the weekend. Its hard to say if this Tesla went out of control, as in the Tesla took over steering, with a high degree of certainty. Its also possible the driver simply lost control of it because this is not their vehicle and they don't know how-to handle Teslas. However there was nothing mentioned to cause the driver to suddenly lose control, like a police chase. Really could use some additional information like: how long they were driving this Tesla for? How erratically were they driving it beforehand? What sort of speed profile is logged? Any sort of sudden variation in its driving would indicate the Tesla glitched.
Since there was about 5 potential out of control Tesla accidents over the weekend and this one has an unexplained reason why it suddenly veered offroad into buildings, I've included it in my list of out of control Teslas for 2023, with an asterisk.
