Investigator says Tesla driver went 'pedal to the metal' before crashing into Texas home, killing a woman

Michael David Butler, 44, faces manslaughter charges after his Tesla Model 3 crashed into a Texas home, killing a woman. Although Butler claimed he was utilizing Tesla's Full-Self Driving (FSD) system at the time, an investigator determined that the driver had pressed the accelerator pedal 100% in the seconds preceding the fatal collision. Butler was arrested on Wednesday following reports from The Wall Street Journal and local news outlet KHOU 11 regarding the incident.
