Many people travel by car during the May Day holiday. Netizen video disclosed that there was a multi-vehicle rear-end traffic accident somewhere in mainland China, but sharp-eyed netizens found that only one Tesla sedan braked after the rear-end accident in front of the vehicle, but was rear-end collision by later vehicles.
The video posted by netizens shows a multi-vehicle rear-end traffic accident somewhere in mainland China, where about 10 vehicles crashed together before and after. The accident occurred not on the highway, but on an ordinary road belonging to the city. The first two cars were involved in a rear-end accident, and the third car braked, but the cars that followed were unable to brake and crashed one after another. Netizens found that the third brake is a Tesla car.
Netizens have posted, “Tesla automatic braking credit?” “Only Tesla brakes.”
Previously at the Shanghai Auto Show, Tesla encountered a female owner jumping on the roof of the car to protest the brake failure, the Chinese Communist Party officials quickly intervened and a furore broke out, even in some places traffic police banned Tesla from the highway.
According to the 30-minute driving data released by Tesla, the owner slammed on the brakes up to 40 times in the 30 minutes before the accident. Netizens analyzed that this might be the owner’s reaction after testing the brakes of the Tesla car. And before the accident, the owner stepped on the brakes very lightly, and only later gradually increased the strength of the brakes, so this is not considered an emergency brake at all. In the end it was the automatic emergency braking feature that the car was equipped with before the accident kicked in that activated the emergency brakes and reduced the car’s speed to 48.5 mph before the collision, mitigating the magnitude of the collision.
