A Tesla Model 3 escapes with risky maneuvers, a police chief chases him. But the speeder records the journey using a dashcam. Was everything completely different?
Görlitz / Rothenburg – The cameras that Tesla* Installed in his electric cars not only serve the controversial autopilot system* of the American electric car manufacturer from Tech billionaire Elon Musk*. In the so-called “Sentry Mode” (German: “Guardian Mode”) they also fulfill a safety and protective function when the car is parked somewhere. In addition, they also record trips and parking processes in the style of dash cams – this can help with the documentation of accidents. In this case, the recordings of his Tesla Model 3 saved a driver who was driving too fast in the eyes of a police chief – and who was followed to his own front door.
Before the district court of Görlitz, Silvio S. was accused of speeding along the state road 127 with risky maneuvers and speeds of up to 180 km / h. And this allegedly also ruthlessly through closed towns. Therefore, he was threatened with a heavy fine for grossly negligent behavior in traffic – and, of course, his driver’s license withdrawn. With driving his Tesla Model 3 SR + it would have been over for the time being. But Silvio S. was an attentive driver – and had noticed his pursuer. In any case, with presence of mind he switched on the cameras built into his Tesla Model 3 – and switched them to recording mode. That was his luck. Because the responsible judge admitted the recordings as evidence – and looked at the videos carefully. That turned the process. You can read all the details about the insane pursuit of the Tesla driver by the police chief at 24auto.de* *24auto.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA
