    Authorities have not said whether any driver-assistance technology was engaged at the time of Monday’s crash.

        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.

            ThePantser did:

            Which model of Ford is being advertised as Full Self Driving and is crashing into people?

              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:

                Is ford guilty of every crash too?

                  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.
