This whole story is insane. Tesla apparently did everything it could to avoid providing the data it had about its Autopilot crash. This is just a snippet and there's a lot more. electrek.co/2025/08/04/t...

I’m going to say this, not to be an asshole, but just so folks can get a clearer understanding, especially white folks.
In many cities, in communities that are majority POC, “jump outs” have been part of policing for DECADES. They often are very much like this. It is new for a PhD student.
