Tesla has reached a settlement in a lawsuit brought by the family of a Silicon Valley engineer who tragically died in a crash while using the company's semi-autonomous driving software. The lawsuit stemmed from a 2018 incident on a San Francisco Bay Area highway.
The exact amount Tesla paid to settle the case remains undisclosed, as court documents filed just a day before the trial was set to begin did not reveal the sum. In a court filing, Tesla stated that it opted to settle the case to bring an end to years of litigation.
