A Tesla limo driver has become the first person to face felony charges in the US for vehicular manslaughter with a partially-automated driving system. His car ran a red light and hit another vehicle, killing both passengers.
Kevin George Aziz Riad was charged with two counts of vehicular manslaughter after his Autopilot-enabled Tesla Model S ran a red light at high speed and struck a Honda Civic at an intersection in the Los Angeles suburb of Gardena in December 2019. Both passengers of the Honda died at the scene, while Riad and his passenger were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries.
While Los Angeles County filed the charges against Riad in October, they only became public knowledge last week. The limousine service driver has pleaded not guilty.
