Sept 16 (Reuters) - Tesla reached a

confidential deal to resolve a lawsuit by the family of a

teenager who was killed in a 2019 California crash involving a

Model 3 vehicle on autopilot, Bloomberg News reported on

Tuesday.

The settlement marks the latest move by the Elon Musk-led

firm to avoid a jury trial over a fatal crash. The

electric-vehicle maker has settled several other cases involving

its vehicles and self-driving technology.

The trial was scheduled to start in about a month in Alameda

County Superior Court, the report said.

Tesla did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for

comment.
