Is every Tesla self-driving?
Are Teslas considered self-driving cars? I’ve heard some bad things about Teslas crashing because they’re on autopilot, which means they’re self-driving cars, right?

You’re right that all
Teslas
are equipped with autopilot features! While Teslas have self-driving technology, they are not fully self-driving cars because drivers still have to pay attention when behind the wheel.In fact, part of the reason that there are accidents with self-driving Teslas is that drivers put too much trust in the self-driving system and don’t pay close attention to the road. It’s recommended that drivers have at least one hand on the wheel at all times when operating a Tesla, even if the autopilot feature is enabled.
While you’re learning more about Teslas, consider also learning about your car insurance options. Check out the
