Narrative

With auto-pilot engaged the Tesla came to an abrupt stop on an Interstate. Possibly this contributed to the Tesla being rear ended. There was another vehicle stopped ahead of the Tesla so stopping was the correct action but the Tesla auto-pilot braked abruptly. There was adequate distance between the Tesla and the car in front of it when it stopped.
