DRUNK DRIVER CLAIMS TESLA WAS ON AUTOPILOT

Did anyone see this coming? An alleged drunk driver was found passed out in a Tesla car on San Francisco’s Bay Bridge in California.

The unidentified motorist was arrested anyway and charged with suspicion of DUI. The incident happened back on January 13.

* On what number drink do you suppose he came up with that excuse?
* It’s probably not a good idea to make your robot car mad at you.
* These cars are going to also need coffeemakers.
* Interesting case, and I’m sure it will get resolved on one of those CBS-TV law shows like “Bull”.
