Tesla car 'predicts' accident before it even happens

Thanks to Tesla Motors' Autopilot 8.0 technology, which is installed in all their automobiles, an accident between two cars on a Dutch highway didn't result in a pile-up.

What is Autopilot 8.0 exactly?
It's a feature in Tesla cars which uses radar to track vehicles around the Tesla vehicle. It then uses this knowledge to help its passengers 'avoid' accidents by turning on the car's safety features such as the brakes.

Any driver who is worthy of having a license to operate should have seen that happening long before the car did. Unfortunately, far too many under-qualifed people are allowed to drive. They should use mass transit.

Further, NONE of those systems work at all in snow.
