Narrative

Vehicle was stopped at a red light. On its own it began driving- accelerating forward from a complete stop - ramming the car in front - then into an active intersection. Thankfully the steering was responsive but not the brake until a few seconds after incident began. Miraculously no one was injured. We have Tesla’s dashcam video of incident but unable to upload onto this platform (it only takes photos).
