So he had his hands on the wheel and took no action for 6 seconds while driving straight to the barrier. Doesn't make it look any better for the driver TBH.

Well, the Tesla had the same amount of visibility and drove straight into the barrier. Victim blaming doesn't get Tesla off the hook.
Tesla is a fucking computer. The dude that took his hands off is a human. One of those has actual intelligence. You don't get to blame user error on the computer because someone died.

He. Took. His. Hands. Off. The. Wheel.

> 6 seconds while driving straight to the barrier

You mentioned "straight" -- do we know that?

Is it possible that the car steered toward the barrier during those 6 seconds, like in this video? https://www.reddit.com/r/teslamotors/comments/8a0jfh/autopil...

> took no action for 6 seconds while driving straight to the barrier.

Did it say the 6 seconds was immediately prior to the crash.
