    Wait, first?
    That was the first crash?

    Huh. I thought for sure people who buy those crash on the way home from the dealership. Of in their garage if “car” is delivered.

      From the article:

      appears to be the first reported fatal crash

      (emphasis mine)

        And they say people can’t read anymore. It’s hidden there in the very first sentence of the article. Who would think to look there?

          First of all, I’m illiterate.

          Second of all, yes, I am surprised by that. Bump one pedestrian and it’s a fatal accident.
