NTSB Confirms 100% Accelerator Input in Texas Tesla Crash While FSD Was Active

The NTSB confirmed that in a fatal Katy, Texas crash, the Tesla’s accelerator was pressed to 100% while Full Self-Driving mode was active, with speeds over 70 mph at impact. Teslas’ data showed the driver manually overridden FSD by flooring the pedal in a residential area. The incident has been tied to a lawsuit naming Tesla and the driver, and while Elon Musk defended that FSD isn’t “homicidal,” the case raises questions about how FSD operates when the accelerator is pressed in neighborhoods. Investigations will continue as more details emerge.
