The National Transportation Safety Board will hold a public hearing to establish the probable cause of a fatal March 2018 Tesla Autopilot crash in California and will issue a series of safety recommendations.

A Tesla owner who almost got rear-ended credits his Model 3 Performance's instant acceleration for helping to avoid the crash.

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is sending a three-member team to investigate a fatal crash involving a Tesla electric car and a semitrailer.
