A lawsuit against Tesla and its driver-assistance technology goes to trial in Florida

A Tesla Model S in the aftermath of a fatal crash in April 2019 near Key Largo, Fla. The driver survived, but the impact killed a 22-year-old woman and severely injured her companion.

The case, which stems from a deadly crash in 2019, raises broader questions about the safety of Tesla's driver-assistance systems, and whether the company has exaggerated their capabilities.
