98-Year-Old Driver Says Tesla's Autopilot Spared a Chipmunk

Original: 98-Year-Old's First Tesla Spares Chipmunk with Flawless FSD

A 98-year-old new Tesla owner says the car's Full Self-Driving system braked and avoided hitting a chipmunk on his first drive, calling the moment proof the technology works. The clip is being shared widely, with commenters debating whether the near-miss shows driver-assistance systems can react faster than humans, and others noting the unusual age of the first-time driver.

Why now: The combination of a very elderly first-time driver and a flawless automated animal avoidance makes a striking human-interest story.
