Tesla Settles FSD Pedestrian Lawsuit

Tesla has quietly settled a lawsuit regarding the 2023 death of 71-year-old Johna Story, who was struck by a Model Y using Full Self-Driving while directing traffic in Arizona. Terms remain undisclosed.

This incident, the first known pedestrian fatality linked to the system, remains central to an ongoing NHTSA engineering analysis covering 3.2 million vehicles. The federal probe examines FSD performance in low-visibility conditions like sun glare.
