And BTW, because I’m sure at least one person in this thread is just wriggling with glee right now, the new facts don’t change my opinions on testing cars. This is why we test them. To find out where their weaknesses are and correct them before we unleash them unsupervised.
The true failure here, as @Whitey said, is that the guy who was supposed to be supervising the car, wasn’t.
This story should have concluded with “the car didn’t react properly and the driver had to intervene to prevent a tragedy. The fleet is grounded until we correct the problem.”
