Yes - most Tesla drivers are douches, but the car's data should (eh - maybe in a just world) nail the driver. I live part time in St Pete (and Cbus) and have been following a case in Tampa FL involving a full douche neurosurgeon with a long list of speeding infractions in his Tesla. This guy was doing 100 mph though a quiet neighborhood thinking he was in some grand prix, hitting the apex of each curve regardless of which side of the road the curve was on. Tragically a triathlete was training on his bike riding the other direction. At 100 mph, his body literally disintegrated from the impact. Turns out though that Teslas have (at least) 6 cameras and a shitload of telemetrics that record not only speed but also pressure on the accelerator and brake, road temp, ambient temp, orientation, acceleration, etc. Hopefully the Cbus driver and the Tampa driver are never on the road again and preferably behind bars.
