"A while" in legal terms can be 5 years or more, which is about the same amount of time it'll take to make a case of criminal negligence.

In any case, access to the charger network is a different issue. While it may be owned by Tesla, $2bn in the scheme of government spending is nothing, and there are alternatives if needed. The supercharger network, without an upgrade to high capacity DC 800V charging, has only got a limited lifespan anyway.

They got the legal protections when you hit accept.

And 5 years or more? Statute of limitations would be gone.

What would they sue for?

They’re suing but losing.

Look at all the last suits.

And there were like 7 fatalities (rip to those who passed). Paying out a few million to those families won’t hurt the technology or the other companies pursuing self driving.

The government won’t touch stifling any AI company right now in fear of China and others getting there first
