I write about technology-driven changes reshaping mobility Share to facebook Share to twitter Share to linkedin Police respond to the Tesla crash in Davie, Florida, that killed Model S owner Omar Awan on February 24. CBS Miami via Youtube A Tesla owner was killed in a fiery crash in Davie, Florida, Sunday afternoon and a day later local emergency officials were still contending with the car’s damaged lithium-ion battery pack that repeatedly reignited while sitting in a towing yard.
Google Maps “We are deeply saddened by this accident and our thoughts are with everyone affected by this tragedy,” Tesla said in an emailed statement. “We have reached out to the local authorities to offer our cooperation. 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.
I forgot... combustion engine cars are built out of (Legos and, use water for fuel) Thus, it’s safe to crash into anything I want? without a fire occurring. elonmusk
Par for the course. Teslas are giant battery bombs. elonmusk never figured out what Nikola Tesla could do: wireless transmission of power. His cars should be called Edisons. Their low-tech cars insult Tesla's name. A true Tesla would receive wireless power & have no range limit
tesla is the best. you have to be a great driver to handle such slick technology. be careful people.
Driver was traveling at greater than 75 mph. Other news sources reported around 90 mph. Collision at that speed will kill and/or often create fire regardless whether the vehicle is electric or gasoline. Glad no one else was injured.
📉📉📉 terrible news
Cue the rednecks claiming they're never buying a Tesla because they can get drunk and crash into stuff in their goat-roper pickem-ups without causing a 'fahr.'
Why are you not talking about BMWs Fires 90 + of them
Hey Elon, there's an idea...you can put all those lithium batteries up on your Martian gated communities and they can be perpetual energy.
You good ? TTfue
Yes sir our cars do come with a prepaid cremation.
