A Florida jury has ordered Tesla to pay $243 million in damages in a lawsuit related to a fatal crash involving its Autopilot driver-assistance software. The court found Tesla partly responsible, citing defects in the Autopilot system. This verdict follows revelations that Tesla withheld key crash data for years and misled investigators. In the wake of the verdict, Tesla and CEO Elon Musk are facing a shareholder lawsuit accusing them of securities fraud for concealing safety risks associated with Tesla's self-driving technology, including the Robotaxi. The lawsuit alleges that Tesla misrepresented the safety of its autonomous vehicles, following a flawed public test in late June where Robotaxis were observed speeding, braking suddenly, and performing dangerous maneuvers. This legal action comes amid a significant drop in Tesla's market value, reportedly by $68 billion. Shareholders contend that the Robotaxi violates traffic laws and that the company failed to disclose these risks adequately. The combined legal challenges underscore growing scrutiny over Tesla's autonomous driving technologies and their safety implications.
