According to US media, two men were killed in a crash in Texas while riding in a Tesla car that police said almost certainly had no one behind the wheel.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the car crashed into a tree and burst into flames late Saturday north of Houston, according to Harris County constable Mark Herman.
"Our preliminary investigation is establishing - but it isn't complete yet - that no one was driving that car," he said. "We're almost 99.9% certain."
Police haven't decided if the driver-side airbag deployed or the car's driver assistance system was enabled at the time of the accident, according to Herman.
The local police could not be reached for comment by AFP.
Tesla warns on its website that the driver assistance systems it provides do not allow its vehicles fully self-driving, and that active driver control is still needed.
However, videos also show Teslas driving while sleeping or with their hands off the wheel for long periods of time.
