AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)08/13 Report--

Recently, a netizen reflected on Weibo that at about 11:50 at noon on July 17, he was driving Tesla Model3 parked at the position of the red circle shown in the picture and others, and started walking. The vehicle suddenly accelerated and hit the roadblock stone pier, and stepped on the brake pedal many times without success, until the rear-end collision hit the bus in front of him! In addition, the car owner also said that his head hit the front shield, has done CT is not a big deal. From the accident picture issued by the car owner, we can see that the stone pier beside the road has been pulled up, while Tesla's front bumper position has been seriously damaged, and the license plate has also fallen on the ground.

In response to the accident, Tesla officials also sent the vehicle owner the data detection report at the time of the accident. The car owner exposed the data test report at the time of the vehicle accident on Weibo yesterday. Tesla's official test report said: there were no reports of faults related to the braking system, motor drive system and acceleration pedal before the incident; after the vehicle remained at rest in D-block "hold" mode for 8 minutes and 10 seconds, the vehicle suddenly stepped on the acceleration pedal to 77.7% and 100%, and the vehicle accelerated and had the first collision, and then the driver continued to press the acceleration pedal and released the acceleration pedal 1 second before the second collision. The driver did not press the brake pedal before the two collisions; combined with the customer's description of "no braking effect, automatic acceleration", the possibility of misoperation of the driver's pedal can not be ruled out. To sum up, there is no abnormality in the whole process. The car owner said he did not approve of the accident report issued by Tesla. It said: it takes almost 100% of the accelerator pedal to accelerate to 17 yards in 4-5 seconds, and the compilation is not good. Is this still Tesla?

In response to this matter, netizens have also published: who told you to drive on the road? Such a high-end thing must be put up in the living room, and you don't have an education at a glance. In a panic, step on the switch, unless you set up a recorder in the car to photograph everything, or the background data is normal and other related comments.

Since the exposure of the Tesla brake failure incident by the female owner of the Shanghai auto show, there has also been a significant increase in the reports of Tesla's accident, whether it is the improper operation of the driver or the problems with Tesla's products that led to the accident. the parties and drivers have different views on the occurrence of the accident. Generally speaking, Tesla generally believes that there is no problem with the braking system, while the parties think that Tesla has problems such as abnormal acceleration, brake failure and so on. At present, there is no way to determine whether Tesla's product defects caused the accident.

It is worth noting that Tesla's "single pedal" model has always been controversial. Because Tesla is a single pedal design, the so-called single pedal mode is through the acceleration pedal to achieve vehicle start, acceleration and deceleration, step down acceleration, release deceleration, as long as the driver is skilled, start, taxiing, braking and other operations can be accomplished by controlling the strength of the pedal. However, although the single pedal mode is sufficient to complete most acceleration and deceleration operations under normal driving conditions, drivers are prone to operational errors when emergency situations require emergency braking. Secondly, many drivers who are in contact with the single pedal mode for the first time can not adapt to this set of operating habits.

Earlier, Tao Lin, Tesla's vice president of foreign affairs, said in an interview with the media, "our quarterly safety reports can show that Tesla's car, especially after using an autopilot system, can effectively improve vehicle safety." At the same time, Tao Lin also said that in the use of vehicles, we also need to strengthen consumer education, and we need to cooperate with driving schools and transportation departments to let everyone understand the use of the new car and avoid misoperation in the use of the car. or some other problems caused by lack of functional understanding.
