Something on the same lines happened to a tesla on the 14 fwy in my hometown in Palmdale, CA a few years ago. It was 4th of July and someone in a tesla got distracted from all the illegal fireworks going off and rear ended a camery, causing it to ignite in a fireball

>half the front end was torn off
half the front end was melted off, it does not take very much impact to set off a cascade reaction with a lithium battery

the fire happened many minutes after the accident. The death of the driver was independent of the fact that it is an EV, hitting a barrier at 85mph would kill you either way

News says he was actually in the carpool lane when he first collided with the barrier. How do you fuck up so badly?

I have done exactly this. And walked away. I also hit it sideways on the passenger side, which probably helped.

No you didn't. Pics or it didn't happen
Carson Murphy
So did he drive into it or did the automatic driving think it was a lane and didn't move?
