Lost consciousness for a bit. Unknown why.

Not really the fault of the EV then tho :D

No, but it's still a factor why they may not last forever XD never underestimate human error.

My car wouldn't have done that. Had I fallen unconscious it would either follow the road or stop

But that's also not because it's electric.

There were no stripes on the road so the line assist didn't work. He was unconscious for just a sec, he remembered seeing the slight turn, then to wake up while flying into the trees.
