The driver of a Tesla involved in a crash that left a motorcyclist dead said he was operating the vehicle’s Autopilot feature and checking his phone at the time, documents show. The 56-year-old unnamed driver was on his way home from lunch at 3.45pm last Friday when his Tesla collided with a motorcycle driven by Jeffrey Nissen, 28, in a suburban area about 15 miles outside of Seattle. Mr Nissen was pronounced dead at the scene. Authorities are yet to verify that the car was running Autopilot at the time of the crash, but the fatal incident raises questions over whether Tesla’s recent recall of two million cars went far enough to ensure that motorists using the auto drive feature pay attention to the road. The Tesla driver was arrested for investigation of vehicular homicide after he told a Washington State Patrol trooper he was using the vehicle’s Autopilot feature and looked at his cellphone while the car was moving, according to a probable-cause document obtained by the Associated Press.
