By driving it
Tesla wasn't driving it, the drunk/high owner was.
Right
It was on autopilot, so technically the drunk wasn’t driving it. But he is the one responsible.
Autopilot doesn't work that way, the drunk should have known that when he wasn't drunk and not tried to use it that way.
It's like the old shaggy dog story about the guy driving a camper, setting the cruise control, then going into the back to make lunch.
That's not the fault of the cruise control.
Thanks for the ELI5 that I wasn’t aware of needing.
