the vehicle appears to have flipped several times before becoming wedged into rocks just feet from the surfline, the children were rescued thru the back windows and the adult passengers required jaws of life extraction.

Crashes along Devil's Slide in California rarely end with survivors.
So when Dharmesh A. Patel allegedly attempted a murder / suicide by driving off the cliff with a woman, 4 year old girl, 9 year old boy, few had hope. Just one problem with Patel's plan: He was in a Tesla

“Dharmesh A. Patel”
Okay, that’s it. I’m not shopping at this guy’s 7-Eleven or staying at his motel.
To: Steve Van Doorn
update: Dharmesh is a MD, radiologist. The passengers are his wife and his own 2 children.

Thank goodness these children survived.
Remember when those two women drove over a California cliff in a murder/suicide, killing their adopted children and themselves?

I didn’t realize how safe Teslas are designed.

Lots of horrible people in the world. Glad the children and their mother survived this monster.

Takes a licking and keeps on ticking. Well, sort of.
I wonder how the unusual center of gravity in that vehicle affected this thrill ride (?)

Are they designed specifically to become wedged into rocks just feet from the surfline?

Just like those 2 women that drove off a cliff in that general area. Sure says something about the strength of the Tesla that all survived.

Yeah, Teslas are at the very top of crash safety ratings. Supposedly the Tesla Truck is even better. Shame they are electric cars, but you can’t have everything!

“The electric vehicles have a self-driving feature and a manual option, but whichever one was in use, CHP said the driving mode “does not appear to be a contributing factor in this incident.”
Given the above, and their charging him with attempted murder, whatever was going on in that car must have been recorded, either by someone’s phone or the car, and either intentionally recorde, or not.

I make it a policy.....I don’t drive on roads with cliffs unless I am driving. Just a policy I have.

This is an example that Tesla drivers are weird.

I didn’t realize how safe Teslas are designed. I'd like to see what a competitor vehicle does in this situation before drawing that conclusion.

HE was speeding...and where he went off had no guard rails either.......some have mentioned about the only way a man would take the life of his family was if she was cheating on him....or too far in debt...or both.
