What we know so far: The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a probe into a Tesla crash in Katy, Texas, where a Model 3 slammed into a home on June 19. According to sheriff's officials, the Tesla Model 3 veered off the road at a high rate of speed, crossed a yard and driveway, and crashed into a brick home, killing a woman inside.
According to the Harris County Sheriff's Office, the driver told deputies he was using an automated driving assistance system at the time of the crash. Inside the home was Martha Avila, who later died from injuries sustained in the collision.
Video captured by a home security camera and later shared on social media appears to show the blue Model 3 speeding across a yard and driveway before crashing through the front wall of the house. Investigators have not yet released a detailed account of the events leading up to the collision.
