autopilot is semi-autonomous more like glorified cruise control.The first fatality was in July 2016 when a Tesla tried to drive through a lorry trailer, the car was in auto mode.
It's youtube, so ...
WARNING: it stops a millisecond before a fatal collision, so think carefully before you click.

Heard a discussion about this on R4 the other day. First pedestrian fatality caused by a car was 1896 or thereabouts. Hit by a car at 4mph. The coroner at the time said it must never be allowed to happen again.
Interviewee said, and I paraphrase, at that point we could have decided to stop development of the motor vehicle but we've basically decided as a society to accept a certain amount of collateral damage.
Thanks for the update. Do you have link to the other forum and ... do we know if the driver (whom Uber named really quickly) was aware that subsystems had been disabled?According to a post on another forum the Uber car was driving with part of it's system switched off (Mobileye collision avoidance system) Mobileye are reported to be very unhappy .
