Right. There was no denial, no attempt to shift blame, nor did that investigation produce any findings I was able to find.

Note that when Tesla says it disengaged, they contend to give a time down to the second. I also could not find any outrage reports that they tried to shift blame this way and you know there are many haters who would jump on that chance

Shifting to legal articles, I see several saying trying to shift blame this was would not work
