The driver told officers she went to brake to turn onto Market Street, but the car kept going and accelerated into the building. The impact sent bricks, glass and concrete through the studio, and a class had been moved out of the room minutes before. Police said three people were taken to the hospital with minor injuries. Classes resumed the next day, while the studio waited on insurance and engineers before full repairs. Police were reviewing the crash report and how autopilot was being used when the car hit the building.

The sources do not say whether the Autopilot system is an AI agent, so agent_involved, failure_class and autonomy_level were left out. The cause of the acceleration is not established; the driver's account is that she meant to brake, and police are still reviewing, so trigger, root_cause and responsible_party were left out. No detection method, containment, controls held or failed, or remediation is stated. The country US is inferred from Clinton, Tenn. The severity tier of major is my judgement, based on the stated count of three people taken to hospital; the owner's statement that no one was hurt conflicts with that count and was not used. No dollar loss, third-party count or repair hours are stated. Industry and intended use are not stated. The model name and version are not stated; Model 3 is a vehicle model and was not entered as a model name.
