August 22 news, according to foreign media reports, Tesla Autopilot software director Ashok Elluswamy said that Tesla Autopilot autopilot system can prevent about 40 accidents caused by sudden unexpected acceleration (SUA) every day.

He said that in about 40 accidents, human drivers mistakenly stepped on the accelerator instead of braking. But Autopilot realized that they were doing this and that there was going to be a collision, so they automatically stopped accelerating and hit the brakes to prevent human collisions.

Autopilot is a unique technology of Tesla, which fundamentally plays the same role as the systems of competitors such as GM's Super Cruise or Ford's BlueCruise.

The Autopilot system has been thought to be the chief culprit in the past involving Tesla's car crash. In June, foreign media reported that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) had stepped up its investigation into whether Autopilot was defective and revealed that it had reviewed 191 vehicle accidents involving the use of Autopilot.

In fact, the system is only partially automated, such as keeping cars in the driveway and keeping a safe distance from the vehicles ahead. The system is only designed to assist drivers, who must be ready to intervene at all times.
