All right. Alex savidge in our newsroom. Thank you. An investigation into the case of a driver killed while his tesla glass self driving road. A tractor trailer turned left in an intersection in front of that tesla and the car field to stop. Federal investigators are trying to determine why the sensors didnt detect that truck in its path. Tesla admits that the auto pilot feature is still in its beta test phase. Drivers should keep their hand on the steering wheel. This is a situation where the auto pilot feature can maybe lull you into a false sense of security because it does a good job of taking over driving but may not handle every situation well. In a statement, tesla says that neither auto pilot nor the driver noticed the white side of the tractor trailer against the brightly lit skies so the brake did not apply. The high right height of the trailer combined with the circumstances caused the car to pass under the trailer.

Toll prices on the Golden Gate Bridge go up. Now it costs more to cross. 7. 50 for cars with no fast track and 6. 50 for fast track. A bridge district spokeswoman says that the toll heights will help balance a projected five year deficit of 33 million.

The gunman in the orlando shooting was able to legally buy an Assault Rifle even though the fbi investigated him for possible ties to terrorism. In the meantime, state lawmakers yesterday approved more than a dozen bills related to gun control that would put mainly george new restrictions on gun owners. The democraticcontrolled legislature approved background bills that would ban high capacity magazineance ban so called hot buttons. Democrats and republicans disagree on whether these will end the mass shootings. We will not stop moving forward forcefully to make sure that we protect our families, our children. Over the last 20some years, all the bills that have passed supposedly would cut down gun violence. Gun violence has gone up because its not about the guns but about the individuals.

A new development with the 94 yearold woman whose commemorative coin was stolen during a Home Invasion robbery. Well work with the white house and get a replacement coin from the president. They could not help it when they heard the story as well. The white house now offering to help but the reason the woman shies says she would still like the original coin back. Welcome back to mornings on 2. We have an update on the 94 yearold woman from richmond who was robbed of a special counsel given to her by president obama during a Home Invasion robbery this week. The white house heard about it and they are sending her a new coin. Ktvus Paul Chambers has more on how she reacted to the news. Armed with flowers. That is so nice. Reporter Tom Leatherman came to check on his employee, betty reid soskin. He read a letter from the department of interior. A thief stole a coin given to her by president obama. I want the original coin returned. Police say an intruder broke into her second story apartment. Took her ipad, laptop and her commemorative coin. Leatherman had good news about the coin. Im sorry that the coin was stolen. We will work with the white house to get you a replacement coin. Whats your reaction is this. There is a part of me that really is resistant to having a replacement coin when it was in the experience that the magic is. It was back in december that president barack obama presented soskin the coin for being the Oldest Park Ranger during a Tree Lighting ceremony. It was that exchange with the president that made the original coin so special but what you dont know is the meaning behind it. Soskins grandmother was a slave. She held a picture of her grandmother. To have that experience with the first African American president , you can imagine the emotions that would have produced in me and its that experience that has meaning for me, not the coin. I want the original coin returned Reporter Police need your help locating the suspect. It was dark so she has little to go on. He was white, 58, slim build.

And im pam cook. Thank you for joining us. Thats a happy song. I know. Good song. Good way to start the day. And you know another good day to start the day is with rosemary. I agree with you. We should have kept the music. Away from the coast, we do have mostly sunny skies. Temperatures will be very similar to yesterday for some, perhaps a tad warmer for some, a tad cooler but all in all, subtle changes in store as we get into the last business day of the week.
