a few points from the article,



"The investigative staff of U.S. National Transportation Safety Board... recommended that Tesla’s Autopilot system be declared a contributing factor in the crash because it allowed the driver to go for long periods without steering or apparently even looking at the road, according to a person briefed on the findings"



"The statement also praised Tesla for improving its Autopilot software after the accident, changes it said were a direct result of the crash."



what's more, we now know the Model 3 has an internal camera pointing back in the cabin... i.e., this could well allow monitoring of the driver's attention.



"The truck driver’s failure to yield and Brown’s inattention to the highway were the primary reasons for the collision, the NTSB staff concluded in its draft report, according to the person briefed on it."
