A fatal accident saw a Tesla Model S protagonist, the US house was called to a really high compensation.
A history happened a few years ago but recently ended with the judgment of giudiceputs a lot in trouble there Tesla. And’fatal accident that has seen a protagonist Tesla Model Swith the casa which was called in judgementthe explanationsil giudice decided to give one minimal fault to the house of Polo Alto. What happened in detail? Now we will go and see it, to understand the whole historyand then we will also understand the motivation of the judge on the judgment.
Let’s find out what happened in this tragic story
The driver of the Tesla stood overtaking another car unfortunately was going quite fastand the curve does approached. The car was going at a speed of 187 km/heven if the the limit was 40 km/h, as we were in an urban center. L’high speed did not allow the development of the curveso the Tesla Model S Yes is crashedcausing the death of the two on board. Inside there was not only the driver but also a passenger.
This story dates back to 2018 but only now has closed his trial. The judgment arrived from Fort Lauderdale federal jury was that of compensation from Teslaai relatives of the victims. A compensation of 10.5 million dollarsthis is because it was 1% car manufacturer blamed. The judgment is not far-fetched, since theaccusation had declared a malfunction of a component of the carwho could save life to the two aboard the Model S.
What had the defense asked for? or rather what hadn’t worked for her?
I parents they had gone into action after having received and paid the finefor thespeeding of the car of the poor deceased son. There family however he said that from his Tesla had been removed the speed limiting devicei.e. that the car does not exceed the 137 km/h. Another and perhaps even more significant point would be that of one incorrect battery cell designwhich would have contributed to the explosion of the fire afteraccident. Tesla he specified that the limiter was raised by the owner through a mechanic, e there was no problem on the battery pack.
Il judgement as we have seen it found one fault even if a minimum of Teslawho will have to pay one anyway very high sum. This affair is really tragicand shows us how to go to speeds too highcause unfortunately many times serious accidentsand even some deadly. The responsibilities of the US car manufacturer which she rejects, I am anyway severe. Il malfunction of the battery cells It’s a thing gravethat it can never happen. We will see if theagency from Elon Musk will pay family members or open to one long legal battle.
