Tesla agrees to pay compensation to the family of an Apple engineer over the Autopilot accident
Tesla has agreed to a settlement with the family of Wei Walter Huang, the Apple engineer who died in a Tesla car's Autopilot malfunction in 2018 and has since been sued.
In 2018, Huang was involved in a fatal accident in Mountain View, California, when his Tesla Model Two cars then collided with Huang's vehicle and the Tesla's high-voltage battery was compromised, causing a fire. Huang died of his injuries after being transported to a nearby hospital.
Such an incident happened to a Tesla model designed by Huang and the report reveals that Tesla also wants Apple to testify in this case.
The report reveals that Tesla initially tried to dispute these allegations, but eventually backed down. Willing to provide compensation to the family of the deceased. The lawsuit is scheduled to go to trial this week, but Tesla is prepared to settle the case through remedies. Who has no case information and no details have been revealed at all.
The court set an upcoming hearing on April 11, 2024 to review the details and conditions of treatment. This case has attracted a lot of attention because it concerns how safe the driving assistance system is. Because the impact this time is serious and life-threatening.
