A California man who was repeatedly snapping driving in the rear seat of his Model 3 Tesla while it was on autopilot has been arrested for reckless driving. California Highway Patrol were alerted to Sharma's stunts after someone posted a video of him in the rear of his Model 3 Tesla earlier this month. 'It's not something we see often, and we're hoping this doesn't become a trend,' the California Highway Patrol told DailyMail.com. The Tesla Autopilot is intended to assist a fully attentive driver and is not fully autonomous or a 'self-driving' car. 'I've been brake-checked before really hard, and the car stopped,' Sharma told KTVU.
