Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

It's never engaged in the time of a crash because it's programed to disengage when the crash is inevitable.
That still doesn't mean every Tesla crash is caused by its driver-assistance technology
No, it's just means that determining if it was or wasn't engaged is meaningless. And so is reporting on individual Tesla crashes as anything else than another car accident.
Nobody said it was.
ThePantser did:
You do realise he talked specifically about crashes that are caused by a feature advertised as self-driving and not every crash ever by a car brand, don't you?
You do realize this was a reply to the following comment:
That comment tries to misrepresent the argument by applying the accusation to every crash involved with the brand, but the comment you quoted correctly brought back the proper context by only applying it to crashes caused by a feature called Full Self Driving. Just because someone tried to sneakily change the context of the conversation, doesn't make every comment in reply to it must follow that change.
But that's the point. Everyone here is assuming the crash was caused by Full Self Driving just because it was a Tesla.
It was prompted by the mention of another crash that was centred around whether FSD was the cause or not. It was a discussion on the fact that Tesla will always claim that their self driving technology is never the one at fault, even in cases where it was clear that it was. Nobody here said all Tesla crashes are caused by the FSD.
