A crash scene in Cochise County, Arizona, where a Tesla crashed into a police vehicle, causing it to hit an ambulance, in July 2020. — Arizona Department of Public Safety/TNS
Last Thursday (Feb 16), Teslas equipped with Full Self-Driving software were deemed defective enough to warrant a recall because they're prone to crashing.

The Tesla recall raises important and thorny questions not only about Tesla but also about auto safety regulation in the United States.
