Tesla cars
safely yet. Accidents do still happen and even with current technology, according to a Guardian article (Rushe, 2021), there have been 11 crashes reported since 2018 with passengers using autopilot even if it is likely that the feature was being misused in most of the incidents. Elon Musk is confident that Tesla is close to full autonomy and has made hugely bold statements like ‘Tesla’s full self -driving tech will have level-5 autonomy by the end of 2021’ (Hyatt, 2021) . While this is heavily unlikely, it does not seem that they are far off, and it is probable that Tesla will have the technology to produce fully autonomous cars in the near future. This is especially evident with the full self-driving technology, which is under regular Beta testing and has shown a lot of promise even if it is not ready to be released(Change, 2021).
