A Tesla owner named Rishi Vohra shared a harrowing experience on social media where he revealed that the company's autonomous driving technology saved his life. He was driving when he fainted after taking medication that triggered a severe allergic reaction, and his condition worsened rapidly while talking on the phone with his wife. Vohra described the moment when he lost consciousness, emphasizing how terrifying the situation became during what had been an ordinary drive.

In his post on X (formerly Twitter), Vohra detailed how the Tesla's 'Full Self-Driving' feature played a critical role during this life-threatening incident. The car's driver monitoring feature was able to detect that he had lost consciousness and took necessary actions to prevent a crash. This incident has sparked discussions about the efficacy of autonomous driving technology, particularly its potential to save lives in emergencies.

Divulging further details, Vohra expressed immense gratitude towards Tesla for the technology that allowed his car to maintain control and ensure safety despite his incapacitation. The story gained significant traction when Tesla's CEO, Elon Musk, responded to the viral post, highlighting the importance of such advancements in driving technology and raising awareness about the capabilities and benefits of self-driving features in mitigating risks on the roads.
