The driver of a Tesla Model S was killed when his car crashed near Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and erupted in flames.

Witnesses told police in Davie, Florida, that the car was travelling 75-to-90 miles per hour Sunday afternoon when it left the road for an unknown reason. The driver over-corrected and the car slid across three lanes and into some trees in the median.

Tesla said in a statement that it was deeply saddened by the crash and is co-operating with police. "We understand that speed is being investigated as a factor in this crash, and know that high speed collisions can result in a fire in any type of car, not just electric vehicles," the company said.

Change your headline. Irresponsible.

Paul Walker died in a high speed fiery crash in a Porsche, most cars that are traveling at high speed and hit a soil object suffer massive damage that can lead to fuel tank rupture and fire. This is just a typical consequence of driving like an asshole! Nothing special!

Hmmm crash crash making highlight news. Happens everyday peeps. pushing a agenda again.

How many high speed crashes happened today in North America that were not Tesla cars? I personally prefer a car from a company that makes headlines when one crashes.

Strange. Most car accident casualty stories don’t list/highlight the make and model of the car. I smell an agenda.

Final farewell for children killed in Halifax fireHundreds of mourners gathered for the funeral of seven children killed in a house fire. Heidi Petracek reports. The imam said the kids are martyr’s ... (Really ?) ... mar-tyr noun 1. a person who is killed because of their religious or other beliefs. verb 1. kill (someone) because of their beliefs. ... Maybe it lost something in the translation ... Canada gave them sanctuary and a new life. Please don’t spin this and label them martyrs. Who started the fire? If you’re calling them martyrs are there facts we don’t know about? When are they going to anounce what caused the fire.
