It also ran a Super Bowl commercial in 2023, pointing out the same thing. Not long after the Dawn Project's ad ran, the exact thing it warned about supposedly happened in real life. As ABC 11 reports, the driver of a Tesla Model Y hit Tillman Mitchell, a high school student at the Haliwa-Saponi Tribal School in Hollister, North Carolina, as he got off a school bus. Investigators suspect that either Autopilot or Full Self Driving may have been engaged during the crash. Mitchell suffered "life-threatening injuries" and was flown to a nearby hospital for treatment, where, thankfully, he survived. Still, a fractured neck and broken leg aren't exactly the kinds of injuries you recover from quickly. That incident is also far from the only time a Tesla failed to stop. If Tesla's so-called "Full Self-Driving" software only worked on highways like some other driver-assistance systems, its inability to reliably stop for emergency vehicles and other stopped vehicles, such as school buses, would still be a problem. But with plans to deploy a bunch of Model Ys as robotaxis on city streets in a matter of weeks, it's even more concerning. The robotaxis are still coming Jonathan Weiss/Shutterstock Granted, the Dawn Project and founder Dan O'Dowd are anti-Tesla and don't try to hide that fact. As a result, you can expect Tesla's army of nerds to show up in the comments, complaining that this was just a hit piece from an organization that hates their hero, Elon Musk. And yet, you can still watch the video itself. You can still see it run over the mannequin. If O'Dowd faked the test and is so obviously guilty of defaming Tesla and Musk, where are the lawsuits?
