Tesla has settled a lawsuit related to the death of Johna Story, 71, who was hit by a Model Y using Full Self-Driving in Arizona. The terms of the settlement were not disclosed. The incident, which occurred in 2023, was the first reported pedestrian fatality involving Tesla's automated driving technology. Story had exited her vehicle to direct traffic around a collision caused by sun glare when she was struck. The crash prompted a federal investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) into how Full Self-Driving operates in poor visibility conditions. This settlement is the latest in a series of legal challenges facing Tesla over its driver assistance systems.
