Tesla Autopilot was on in I-35 crash that killed its driver
A 2024 Tesla Model Y ran off Interstate 35 in rural Missouri, struck a guardrail, and killed its driver, a 64-year-old woman from Raymore. Troopers reported a single-vehicle wreck and said the car βwent off the road.β
What they didnβt say, and likely didnβt know, is that Teslaβs own report to federal regulators says the carβs driver-assist system was engaged. This is part of an ongoing Electrek investigation matching reported crashes to Teslaβs redacted NHTSA data.
