Self-driving in spotlight again after first Tesla autopilot crash in China
Beijing
TESLA said on Wednesday that one of its cars had crashed in Beijing while in "autopilot" mode, with the driver contending that sales staff sold the function as "self-driving", overplaying its actual capabilities.
Tesla said it had reviewed data to confirm that the car was in autopilot mode, a system that takes control of steering and braking in certain conditions.
