I understand that HN has title length limits, but removing "police say" from the title changes something from an accusation to a statement of fact. Innocent until proven guilty and all that jazz.

If we cannot fit ", Police Say" then maybe change it to:

> Man Who Survived 250-Foot Cliff Plunge in Tesla [Accused] of Trying to Kill His Family

Tried to update, but your proposed title is 8 chars over the limit.

Possibly remove the height of the cliff and include more essential information.

I've driven through the Devil's Slide area in a car, and that is one the most frightening stretches of two lane road I've ever traveled. Prior to the Tom Lantos tunnel, the drive to/from Pacifica on that stretch of road was just completely insane.

Lazy journalists are quick to report every.single.incident that involves a Tesla in any way. "Woman shot and killed by man who used Tesla FSD three weeks ago".

Yet I don't see any "Tesla saves wife and children from being murdered" stories in the headlines today...
