A collision involving a Tesla vehicle has raised questions about potential malfunctions.
According to Yonhap News, at approximately 2:45 p.m. on August 18, a Tesla test drive vehicle crashed into a sign at the Yeouido IFC Mall in Seoul.
Three individuals in the vehicle sustained minor injuries and were transported to a nearby hospital. The vehicle collided with the sign shortly after exiting a parking lot near the Yeouido store.
It has been determined that the vehicle was not in autonomous driving mode at the time of the incident.
