And a month or so later, in August of this year a guy was driving his Tesla Model X and suffered a pulmonary embolism. The car was able to drive him down the freeway to the nearest hospital, saving his life.

The circumstances surrounding the exact conditions of the Florida crash aren't clear, but it remains the only death in over 130 million miles driven by Tesla owners.
