"Automotive News reports that a Tesla struck a Michigan State Police vehicle that was stationary on a freeway early on Wednesday. According to police, the "Autopilot" driver-assistance system was engaged, and neither the driver nor the system avoided the crash. A police Twitter account indicated there were no injuries. It's not apparent if the Tesla or driver attempted to slow down to avoid the impact. The driver was also cited for driving with a suspended license, according to the tweet."

I have noticed that the autopilot visualization does not display cars stopped in the breakdown lane. Not sure if the system doesn't register them at all, though can't imagine that is the case.
