ZaRdOz420WPN Same thing that’s happening to Twitter 😒

Piece of junk!

Judge: so you’re saying you did not personally activate and place the vehicle that you own into an automatic mode without supervising it?

Over 5 million “followers” and you can’t even crack 300k views on a post in one day. Paid for followers I would say.

Electric cars not saving the world but will be cutting the population

Are you going to cover every car accident? Lol how many hours of self driving per accident?

Sue them & get millions

Sounds like BS. What do you think?

WAIT TIL THEIR SEMI'S START KILLING PEOPLE IT WILL BE THE END OF TESLA...

TESLA'S ARE CRAP CARS...

Who ?!?! What driver ?!?!? CNN CIA propaganda machine lol.

Classic tesla. Did it also burst into flames and lock the occupants inside?

who pays? the Chief Tweet?

There’s no reason to have self driving vehicles. That’s the stupidest technology out there

Can you people be more obvious the government your protecting is destroying your economy and your storyline is rocket man bad.

And so what? Many cars that aren’t self driving do this all time!

TheRealHoarse

omg

lol.. these self driving cars are proving themselves tone so reliable.. so many videos these days of the cars not responding to the human trying to take over... I’ll never drive one, even if given to me for free

Reports that the Tesla went into suicide mode after noticing its company's stock plunge, have not yet been confirmed.

Tesla isn't unique, My Subaru has braked suddenly when a bird flew past my windshield.

Wow, that company sounds like it really needs a CEO who's going to pay attention to this sort of thing

What's Next ! Can We FEED OURSELVES! Computers Are Killing Us ,We Are Using The Technology Wrong Sometimes!Not For Lazy Thinking People!

Just because a driver said that to authorities, doesn’t make it factual. Sometimes people get in accidents and try to place blame by lying about what caused the accident.

Probably pressed the 8 CAR PILE-UP button by accident.

How lazy do you have to be that you don’t drive whilst sitting in the drivers seat?

Yup, happened to me too. That’s why I never have the standard regenerative braking on when on FSD

It won't take much more to get the Tesla stock under $100. I'm gonna load up when it gets there.

The car had earlier been seen having drinks at a local establishment

There’s about to be a lot more so called “issues” reported about Tesla vehicles nowadays. I wonder why?

Couldn't have happened in a better place anyway....the law of averages say the right profited off that crash....I'll be here crying for the victims if you need me.

Say you hate elonmusk without saying you hate elonmusk

thunderf00t

Ehh, not the biggest or most important story in San Francisco.

Propaganda

The F in FSD stands really stands for “Fake” Self Driving. Why do people paying REAL money for a FAKE self driving feature which Tesla take no responsibility for when it fails? 🤔

You guys suppressed the Hunter Biden laptop story that was true but pushed the Steele Dossier which was a democratic lie. Why anyone believes your organization is beyond many of us.

LoL 🤣 Poor CNN. You appear more rediculous with every post

Focus Ellen Focus.

Why bother to get a self driving car in the first place? Driving is the fun of owning a car. Might as well just take a bus or a Lyft.

Here goes machine vs Elon

I mean this happened to me in a Honda with Honda sensing. Didn’t cause an accident but it was kinda scary.

Democrats now hate Elon. San Francisco is all Democrat (they elect Pelosi!). So now expect more such stories. All those green citizens who bought Teslas to save are now overcome by Elon-hate (used to be Trump-hate)

Backdoor Elon Musk dig. CNN you’re not sneaky.

The Tesla could have come to a complete stop in the middle of the road but it's still the responsibility of the other drivers to not hit other vehicles

Oooops !

Can happen to anyone and it does. I’m on the freeway all the time!!

Ok like people never lie to the police. CNN had to go all the way back to Thanksgiving week for this one. Really desperate.

elonmusk ?

Hopefully the driver has a collision coverage

Is it me. Or is it really hard to believe anything coming out of CNN?

Probably had to brake unexpectedly to avoid hitting a crackhead taking a sh*t on the road.

elonmusk will loose tesla

Ok CNN reported on car wrecks now just because it’s a Tesla? How about the millions of vehicles recalled by other manufacturers that caused crashes and fires?

Pedophiles will still be going down bitches

That's what you get when your software developers routinely burn midnight oil to prove their worth to their dear leader.

Such a stupid bit of journalism. 😂 The car braking has no fault if hit from behind. Counterfeit News Network.

CNN is good at observing wrinkles in a huge positive.

But did the driver disagree with Elon on Twitter recently? 🤔

If Elon Musk has basically taken his hands off the wheel for a while and is waiting for someone else to drive I hope Twitter handles itself better than one of Tesla's cars in the meantime or this could be a short ride...

CNN got their feelings hurt 🤡😂🤡

Jesus CNN. At least try to pretend you are just reporting the news and you’re not actually just going after Elon Musk in retribution. Every other story is about Musk or Tesla. What about Zelenskyy, SBF, or real news?

Fake news at its finest 😂🤡

Lol you looooove these stories. Has Elon officially replaced Trump for you guys at the moment? What ever gets ratings right?! The left swallow it all up. They can’t get enough.
