几周前，一名犹他州男子的S型车自动撞上了一辆停在路边的拖车，这引发了特斯拉和车主之间有趣的往返。特斯拉声称，这辆车的召唤自动泊车功能已经启动，公司认真地在这里玩了起来：它下载了非常详细的日志，记录了车祸发生前发生的一切。

Verge有机会查看了特斯拉区域服务经理5月6日发给车主Jared Overton的信，它详细说明了车主手册和车辆显示中的警告信息，包括提醒操作员必须做好准备，在未检测到物体时停止召唤，并注明只能在私人财产上使用(在这种情况下，召唤似乎是在街道一侧激活的。）

它还在继续，这就是奥弗顿被特斯拉关于碰撞的超特定数据淹没的地方：

Unfortunately, these warnings were not heeded in this incident. The vehicle logs confirm that the automatic Summon feature was initiated by a double-press of the gear selector stalk button, shifting from Drive to Park and requesting Summon activation. The driver was alerted of the Summon activation with an audible chime and a pop-up message on the center touchscreen display. At this time, the driver had the opportunity to cancel the action by pressing CANCEL on the center touchscreen display; however, the CANCEL button was not clicked by the driver. In the next second, the brake pedal was released and two seconds later, the driver exited the vehicle. Three seconds after that, the driver's door was closed, and another three seconds later, Summon activated pursuant to the driver's double-press activation request. Approximately five minutes, sixteen seconds after Summon activated, the vehicle's driver's-side front door was opened again. The vehicle's behavior was the result of the driver's own acti*** and as you were informed through multiple sources regarding the Summon feature, the driver is always resp***ible for the safe operation and for maintaining proper control of the vehicle.

当然，这些都不能改变这样一个事实，召唤应该足够好，可以看到一个大的物体，它的正前方-但除非数据是完全不正确的，这似乎不太可能，奥弗顿显然打破了几乎每一个规则特斯拉有地方操作的功能。

特斯拉公司发言人发给我们的关于这一事件的官方声明，呼应了发给奥弗顿的信的主旨：

Safety is a top priority at Tesla, and we remain committed to ensuring our cars are among the absolute safest vehicles on today's roads. It is paramount that our customers also exercise safe behavior when using our vehicles - including remaining alert and present when using the car's autonomous features, which can significantly improve our customers' overall safety as well as enhance their driving experience.

Summon, when used properly, allows Tesla owners to park in narrow spaces that would otherwise have been very difficult or impossible to access. While Summon is currently in beta, each Tesla owner must agree to the following terms on their touch screen before the feature is enabled:

This feature will park Model S while the driver is outside the vehicle. Please note that the vehicle may not detect certain obstacles, including those that are very narrow (e.g., bikes), lower than the fascia, or hanging from the ceiling. As such, Summon requires that you continually monitor your vehicle's movement and surroundings while it is in progress and that you remain prepared to stop the vehicle at any time using your key fob or mobile app or by pressing any door handle. You must maintain control and resp***ibility for your vehicle when using this feature and should only use it on private property.

许多车辆都有事件数据记录器（即所谓的黑匣子），可以让调查人员了解导致车祸的瞬间，但特斯拉在本案中的数据粒度很有趣。奥弗顿声称他在车旁边站了大约20秒到1分钟，这比特斯拉声称的召唤在他关门3秒后开始运作的时间要长得多。由于责任的原因，双方都有充分的理由将责任转移给另一方。不过，在这种情况下，不同之处在于特斯拉有一个充满数字和时间戳的电子表格来支持自己的观点。

让你的特斯拉自己开车是个坏主意
