Agreed that FSD is crap and shouldn't be available to the public. Maybe it's okay to be tested out in the public by professional drivers, paid to do that, and monitored for attention/alertness, much like Waymo did for oh-so-long (and Uber didn't before the infamous 2018 accident).

BUT... that Tesla could've been a student driver mistaking the brakes for the gas pedal, or a car running out of gas, or somebody passing out, or any number of other plausible circumstances where a car just stops in the left lane for no apparent reason.
