Carmaker Tesla has asked a federal court in Florida to throw out a verdict from a jury that found the company partly liable in a 2019 crash that killed a pedestrian and severely injured another.
Lawyers for the victims had argued that Tesla's Autopilot driver assistance software should have alerted the driver of a Model S and activated the brakes before the crash.
Tesla blamed the driver for the crash, and on Friday asked the court to overturn the verdict, order a new trial, or reduce the punitive damages award.
The firm was ordered to pay $243m (£189m) in damages amid claims that boss Elon Musk misrepresented the software's capabilities.
In a written argument to the court, Tesla said the $243m award flew in the face of "common sense."
