This image provided by Colorado State Patrol shows a Tesla Model 3 that crashed on May 16, 2022 in Clear Creek County, Colo. The widow of a man who died after his Tesla veered off the road and crashed into a tree while he was using its partially automated driving system in Colorado in 2022 is suing the car maker, claiming its marketing of the technology is dangerously misleading. The Autopilot system prevented Hans Von Ohain from being able to keep his Model 3 Tesla on the road and he died after the car burst into flames after hitting the tree, according to the lawsuit filed by Nora Bass in Colorado state court on May 3, 2024. A passenger was able to escape, it said. (Colorado State Patrol via AP)
