"NTSB Investigates Fatal Texas Crash Involving Ford's Semi-Autonomous System"

The NTSB is investigating a fatal crash in Texas involving a Ford electric vehicle that may have been using a partially automated driving system. The crash, which resulted in the death of the driver of a Honda CR-V, occurred on Interstate 10. Ford's Blue Cruise system, which allows hands-off steering on highways, is under scrutiny, and the NTSB will examine the wreckage and events leading up to the collision. Both NHTSA and the NTSB have previously investigated crashes involving partially automated driving systems, with a preliminary report on this incident expected within 30 days.
