Το Σάββατο βράδυ στη Μόσχα τοπική ώρα, ένα Tesla Model S χτύπησε ένα στατικό τρέιλερ στον αυτοκινητόδρομο, προκαλώντας πυρκαγιά και έκρηξη. Η προκαταρκτική έκθεση έδειξε ότι το ατύχημα προκλήθηκε από το σύστημα αυτόματου πιλότου που δεν αναγνωρίζει στατικό ρυμουλκούμενο στο δρόμο. . Το ατύχημα προκάλεσε σοβαρό τραυματισμό σε έναν πατέρα και δύο παιδιά.
Μετά το ατύχημα, ο 41χρονος ιδιοκτήτης και δύο παιδιά μεταφέρθηκαν στο νοσοκομείο και ο τραυματισμός ήταν σοβαρός. The owner suffered a concussion and a broken leg, while the children were injured in the cervical spine and chest.
Globally, Tesla S/X series electric vehicles have experienced nearly or more than 50 accidents, including burning, self-ignition and explosion caused by driving, collision and charging. No matter whether it is a fuel car or a new energy car, absolute safety cannot be guaranteed. For new energy vehicles, the biggest hidden danger lies in their batteries. In this accident, due to an error in the automatic driving system, the vehicle crashed into the trailer and caused a fire and explosion, so no one died, but such a situation is extremely dangerous.
Τα τελευταία χρόνια, with the development of technology in the automotive industry, both autonomous driving and new energy vehicles have shown great development potential and trends. Ωστόσο, today, the technical level is not perfect, it is more necessary for the car companies to strictly control the quality of the products and improve battery safety. Even with an automatic driving system, the driver should pay attention to other vehicles. The autopilot system is a great feature, but I think it will allow people to relax their vigilance and cause accidents.
