Perhaps I have a very unpopular view, but I find this higly improbable. I would rank the probable causes in order of likely probable to tin-foil-hat to be:
- [Very likely] Malfunction of the controller. If there is a black box or real time remote telemetry this could be easily verified. I would be curious if people can authenticate into their own cars API and pull down telemetry data to their cell phone real time yet.
- [Less likely] Driver suicidal. They tried to evade collision and did not target someone nor did they target a wall or pole or cliff.
- [Not likely] Driver confuses accelerator and brake peddle. This would require excessive use of mind imparing drugs and/or alcohol. This is easy to test for.
- [Tinfoil] Citizen spoke out against the wrong person and the theoretical mandated remote drive-by-wire was utilized. Similar theories apply to Anne Heche not a Tesla but same capabilities based on the Ring videos and the movie she was coincidentally producing about sex trafficking that would name names. a.k.a. working as designed, issue closed
I don’t believe this guy could press the accelerator full throttle for so long and not realise it.
