The 8.0 version of U.S.-based automaker Tesla's Autopilot predicted a collision, hit the brakes before being involved in the crash during a journey in the Netherlands.

The camera footage was released by a Twitter account titled Hans Noordsij, who presents himself as a "staunch supporter of fully electric vehicles." Noordsij's video uploaded late on Tuesday shows the Tesla Autopilot predicting a potential accident caused by an unseen breaking vehicle one car ahead.

The Autopilot is then seen hitting its brakes, whereas the vehicle ahead moves forward and crashes.
