I've used it without issues but this sounds like the owner was attempting to use it beyond their field of vision.

People crash cars into other cars all the time at shopping centres with people behind the wheel. Don't know why publications don't cover that /sarcasm

So , I may have missed something - from the article

" the Summon feature is currently in ‘beta’ mode – meaning it is not fully developed and may need more refinement to ensure it functions both safely and as originally intended.

“The whole concept of beta is that it’s still learning – Tesla’s still learning, right, and it’s using these scenarios to learn from that,” David Aylor, the IIHS’ manager of active safety testing, told NBC Washington."

So its okay for driverless Teslas to crash into things , because its in the beta phase.

I must just be getting old.

Same here I don't like being the guinea pig unless I'm involved in the development of the product

Was following a Tesla along the hwy this morning and he tried to merge into the right lane and overtake a truck and it swerved hard back into the left lane. Then he tried again and it started swerving left and right really crazy then finally it straightened up and he was able to overtake the truck. Must have been some tech malfunction poor bloke looked like an idiot.
