A Tesla was in its self-driving mode when it crashed into a parked patrol vehicle responding to a fatal crash in Orange County Thursday morning, police said.
The officer was on traffic control duty blocking Orangethorpe Avenue in Fullerton for an investigation into a suspected DUI crash that left a motorcyclist dead around 9 p.m. Wednesday when his vehicle was struck.
A Fullerton Police Department spokesperson said the officer was standing outside his vehicle around midnight when he saw a Tesla driving in his direction and not slowing down.

Only needs cameras, no problem.
SLAMS! Oh wait, on this headline it is kind of appropriate.
I mean I live in Orange County, I lived in Fullerton for 10± years.
Every other car in the OC is a Tesla.
My point is that this isn’t an “if” it could happen, as more than a “when” will it happen.
If you read that article and live in the OC anyone would say “yep, sounds like Fullerton”
Stop selecting police cars if the capthca asks for green traffic lights.
