In most cases the insurance will only cover $80,000 in damages, the rest is covered by the driver. Which will take him two lifetimes to pay off. It's why idiots drive like idiots, no one can hold them accountable for the lives they take or the damages done, at our current judicial system anyway... which is broken beyond repair.
And if it does end up being a fault with the car, you can bet Tesla will keep the data secret to themselves and patch the rest of their vehicles on the quiet.
@@andreaskeltwolfe6176 The black box of the tesla will prove what really happened. They estimated 70 mph on a road with stop lights. Let that sink in a bit.
Any wreck can be traumatizing I had someone rear end me while going a mere 10 miles per hour and all I remember is a hard force hitting me from the rear I was pretty shaken up to the point that I needed to constantly drink water bottles that I had in my soccer bag to keep myself from passing out while waiting for the police to show up after that for the next few months I couldn’t drive without glancing into my rear view mirror constantly when people were on my tail.
I actually had an accident a few months ago we were going on a trip during the snow and the road was slippery and the car couldn't keep control and was pulled to the side and rolled over. The bumps were traumatizing now whenever I feel bumps on the road I get that feeling of the car being rolled over

Props to the lady who immediately went down the stairs to see if the driver or anyone else was ok! Though, why were you going a 70? What was the reason?!
@@Mr.Green918 - Lmao. Even repeating that is kind of goofy. If you lost control of your brakes, wouldn’t a highway be the safest place to be? A lot more space than regular streets
If your brakes fail while on a highway going 70+ mph why in the world would you pull off the exit? They should have put on their blinkers merge into the shoulder or as far off the road as possible and slowed to a stop.. not exit going way too fast into lower speed traffic areas
That’s what I’m thinking. If they were failing why go somewhere where there’s stoplights and pedestrians. I don’t think they were telling the truth, but I don’t know it’s just a guess.
Brake failure was the most reported cause of the issue coming from the driver. However it's not because the brake fails but the speed (overspeeding) and the drivers's lack of situational awareness or poor decision making were always the cause of these accidents. Brakes takes time before the driver feels its bites (especially when overspeeding) and it takes time for a car to stop from high speed.
Every time someone does something insanely stupid with a vehicle: it’s the cars fault. If the brakes fail on a Tesla it won’t gain speed. Most have regenerative braking which actually slows the car as soon as you let off the accelerator. Most likely they confused the accelerator pedal for the brakes and floored it. When they weren’t stopping they actually hit the pedal harder, which in an electric car will cause very fast acceleration. If they coasted into the building then their story makes sense but they were going full speed ahead. No way to do that in an electric car without your foot on the accelerator.
Yeah I mean. Doesn’t matter if it had regenerative braking or not. Thanks to friction, any car starts to slow down without the accelerator being applied. This seems a bit fishy to me.
My thought exactly. If the brakes had actually failed, then taking your foot off of the accelerator would have immediately started slowing the car down pretty quickly because of the excellent regenerative braking. If the driver were not accelerating and still going 70mph when they hit the building, then how fast was the car going when it exited the freeway, 130mph? It looks like the driver was accelerating.
This makes complete sense. Because I drove the model 3 for a day and the regen braking starts making you think that the gas pedal is also a brake pedal (except in reverse) and I can easily see someone pressing it hard instead of switching to the brake pedal in an emergency.
Brakes can fail on any vehicle, but failing along side with the acceleration pedal at the same time, unlikely. Human error in this case. Glad the person is alive and hopefully they have good insurance
You see the problem with that claim is that Teslas have cameras everywhere and they record things like this. The car could've been just driving in auto pilot. There was a guy who was watching Harry Potter and killed himself in autopilot driving under a semi trailer. I would think that the police would be able to get that information if they wanted to.
Lol everyone has an opinion and everyone always think they know everything. Do you work at Tesla? Because if you don’t, then maybe don’t type with such matter of factness.
Looks to me he was pressing the gas pedal not break pedal. Without any pedals pressed the tesla will stop on its own pretty quick. Telsa can also determine what exactly the driver was doing leading up to the crash.

Be wary of these reports. There's thousands of car crashes every year but ive been seeing a lot of these clips in my recommended with these news stations trying really hard to convince others that Tesla is bad or something.
You wouldn’t say “a Honda drove into a building”. There was a person in the vehicle, it wasn’t driving itself. Don’t be so easily persuaded by titles, people.
Thats what im saying. Whenever its a tesla they make sure to put the cars name in the title. They've done this so many times. I understand people have expectations for tesla but this can happen to anyone or any car. this is similar to the tesla catching on fire situation; any car can catch on fire.

This again? People have been giving false claims about Tesla’s brakes. Each one of them disproved so far. If this was legitimately the vehicle manufacturer’s fault, you would hear a lawsuit attached.
It takes a long time for things to go thru a court system. Depends on how long ago this happened. I’m not sure if IE made a false claim or not. I think they said that the driver stated that the brakes failed I don’t think they out right said the brakes failed. Kinda like a drunk driver saying no I haven’t had anything to drink tonight. From what I understand it really easy to pull the cars data and see if it’s true or not.
No, you wouldn't they would settle out of court and slap a gag order on them. Musk owns the media basically with friends in high places. You wouldn't see anything in the media.
Usually electrical problems too, where the computer chip has a manufacturing fault and starts imputing wrong commands to various systems in the car that essentially overrides normal commands from the driver. Years ago, I think it was Toyota that a had a problem like this where the inbuilt auto braking system (relatively new at the time) would actually cause the car to go into maximum acceleration.
The fact that he was cited for failure to control the vehicle seems to be telling. You wouldn’t get that if it was a legitimate mechanical failure, so he was probably screwing around and lost control of the car.
Whats amazing is how well the car held up and the driver was safe. Literally only the front end is severely damaged, and all the glass held up perfectly.

Tesla can pull data from the car.. called an EDR report (Event Data Recorder).. the fact that people still try to lie their way out of taking responsibility even WITH proof.. is quite absurd lol
This smells to me of someone confusing the brake for the accelerator. The good news is I believe Teslas still have those black boxes so I am pretty sure it will be extremely easy for Tesla to determine if the brakes actually malfunctioned or if the person mashed the accelerator by mistake, panicked, and held it down
No, the incident began on the highway so he took the off-ramp. He had plenty of time to figure out the right pedal. This is just that Tesla makes unreliable cars.
The rate of speed towards a building just screams highly intoxicated, like out of this world drunk. Or, a complete failure of the vehicle itself, car looks to have been traveling at one hell of a speed.
Rate of speed and maybe also the fact that he was still alive after that?! Until they said the driver was stable I though for sure he’d passed on impact
she literally said he hit the building at 70 mph… so ya it’s safe to assume he was hauling ass… also while i agree on the intoxicated part, anyone who knows any sort of law enforcement knows that the FIRST thing they do for crashes involving 1 car is check the blood/breath for alc content.. so they would have known if he was drunk
Also he's in a city, if his brakes failed on the highway he went hella far till hitting that building. Buts it's almost as if electric cars also slowdown when u let off the gas like normal cars. Something do to with rotational mass of the motor that when uncovered does the opposite as when given fuel/power.....weird right....prolly on his phone or taking a nap like most teslidicks
That planter didn’t do a whole lot to stop the car. Assuming they put them there for that. Also, they should be able to tell if it really was the brakes that failed or they were sleeping on auto pilot
a 3500lbs car traveling at 75mph isn't going to be stopped by a planter 💀 It wasn't even stopped by the building so why would you expect a planter to be any better
No mention on how this guy seems to be completely fine?! All jokes aside, Tesla’s must have one hell of a safety rating! 70 miles an hour slammed into a building column and he didn’t have any large injuries?
They do but I don't think the car was going 70. Notice the glass roof didn't even shatter. That was a high rate of speed and the car did a magnificent job of protecting the driver.
Tesla have the highest safety rating on all of their models. Not to mention it helps a lot when there is no conbustion engine in the front that could be pressed into your body in this type of crash.
@@TheOnXboxers combustion engine mounts have been designed to break and drop the motor down to the ground since like the 90s I don’t think any crashes have seen that and if they have the people we’re bound to die anyways because they would have been haulin ass
If the brakes did indeed fail he could have stayed on the freeway until it slowed down to a complete stop. Also how did he not flip over while exiting the free way?
There’s no report of the brakes “failing”. The driver just said he lost control of the brakes which could mean many things. My interpretation is that he hit the wrong pedal and panicked.
@@kamallb4650 yeah but how often do something like brakes fail? The fact that they were going 70 mph in a public area is insane in the first place, driver does not deserve benefit of the doubt
@@JasonJia11 even if it is 0.00001% or some other figure....why do u think this isn't the same case..... I'm not saying Tesla IS responsible....what I'm saying is people can stop being judge Judy in comment section.
This actually seems very unlikely, because all Teslas actually have 2 brakes: caliper brakes(standard), and regenerative brakes. For those who don’t know, regenerative brakes use the motor to slow you down. Not saying it isn’t impossible, but it seems unlikely that the regenerative brakes, and caliper brakes both failed.
this is all electronic or fly-by-wire, and the fact that driver can change the regen setting prove that is is not hard-wired at all and it is electronics.
Blaming the car for this accident, is like blaming a shooting on the gun alone. Unless the brakes actually “failed” on the highway. Although, I have a feeling if that were the case the driver wouldn’t have made it that far.

@@callamastia No no that's clearly totalled. Did you even watch the video? The frame is bent, the entire front end is completely gone, the chassis is chopped up. Do you know what "totalled" means...?
Those cars have a lot of speed and top crash safety. I rarely see one being driven recklessly however. But what the driver said doesn't make a lot of sense. Crash data on the car will give a lot of information.
This is happening a lot lately. Other times, the Tesla suddenly accelerates to a very high speed without the driver applying pressure to the accelerator.
Tesla can easily pull up the info and determine if the brakes really failed. Otherwise, it sounds like a quick excuse for driving recklessly and running a red light.
I feel like I’d rather hit a parked empty car that would cost 5,000-100,000 then a building that costs 250,000-300,000. This persons insurance is going to be out of control expensive till the day they die.
it's incredible how a car can stop injuries from happening (depending on the style of impact). Just to put this in perspective. Even that one comedian woman that fainted on stage suffered severe injury to her head, and yet you can go in a car going 70 to 100kmh (66mph) and not get injured?

You wouldn’t say “a Honda drove into a building”. There was a person in the vehicle, it wasn’t driving itself. Don’t be so easily persuaded by titles, people.
Thats what im saying. Whenever its a tesla they make sure to put the cars name in the title. They've done this so many times. I understand people have expectations for tesla but this can happen to anyone or any car. this is similar to the tesla catching on fire situation; any car can catch on fire.

This again? People have been giving false claims about Tesla’s brakes. Each one of them disproved so far. If this was legitimately the vehicle manufacturer’s fault, you would hear a lawsuit attached.
It takes a long time for things to go thru a court system. Depends on how long ago this happened. I’m not sure if IE made a false claim or not. I think they said that the driver stated that the brakes failed I don’t think they out right said the brakes failed. Kinda like a drunk driver saying no I haven’t had anything to drink tonight. From what I understand it really easy to pull the cars data and see if it’s true or not.

No, you wouldn't they would settle out of court and slap a gag order on them. Musk owns the media basically with friends in high places. You wouldn't see anything in the media.

Setting aside a mechanical malfunction, I really don’t understand how people lose control of their vehicles like this.
Usually electrical problems too, where the computer chip has a manufacturing fault and starts imputing wrong commands to various systems in the car that essentially overrides normal commands from the driver. Years ago, I think it was Toyota that a had a problem like this where the inbuilt auto braking system (relatively new at the time) would actually cause the car to go into maximum acceleration.
@@pickleboy6059 the brakes aren't connected to the OS in tesla. This guy is just on drugs lol

The fact that he was cited for failure to control the vehicle seems to be telling. You wouldn’t get that if it was a legitimate mechanical failure, so he was probably screwing around and lost control of the car.
If brakes failed on a regular car or truck, I think that does trigger a citation. Many locales have safety inspections.
They wouldn't know anyone that when they wrote the ticket.
They would write the ticket then get the vehicle inspected
you get the ticket, and then the BURDEN OF PROOF is on the driver (after the fact) to show the Judge in Traffic Court that it was mechanical failure.
That's what they thought.
Whats amazing is how well the car held up and the driver was safe. Literally only the front end is severely damaged, and all the glass held up perfectly.

Lost control of brakes or failed to use the brakes? Some people have to learn to take ownership of their stupidity and stop blaming the equipment.
If the driver was cited for failure to control his vehicle, then the brakes didn't fail. He did.
Imagine taking you foot of the accelerator and the car slows down and eventually stops. How cool would that be.
Did you study physics properly?? If yes you should know about momentum? 🤦🏻♂️
Teslas do stop if you take your foot off the pedal, you don't even need to apply the brake

This smells to me of someone confusing the brake for the accelerator. The good news is I believe Teslas still have those black boxes so I am pretty sure it will be extremely easy for Tesla to determine if the brakes actually malfunctioned or if the person mashed the accelerator by mistake, panicked, and held it down
Right
No, the incident began on the highway so he took the off-ramp. He had plenty of time to figure out the right pedal. This is just that Tesla makes unreliable cars.

I live in Ohio and have been there so many times! It would be so scary to be there during events like that.
The rate of speed towards a building just screams highly intoxicated, like out of this world drunk. Or, a complete failure of the vehicle itself, car looks to have been traveling at one hell of a speed.
Rate of speed and maybe also the fact that he was still alive after that?! Until they said the driver was stable I though for sure he’d passed on impact
she literally said he hit the building at 70 mph… so ya it’s safe to assume he was hauling ass… also while i agree on the intoxicated part, anyone who knows any sort of law enforcement knows that the FIRST thing they do for crashes involving 1 car is check the blood/breath for alc content.. so they would have known if he was drunk
Also he's in a city, if his brakes failed on the highway he went hella far till hitting that building. Buts it's almost as if electric cars also slowdown when u let off the gas like normal cars. Something do to with rotational mass of the motor that when uncovered does the opposite as when given fuel/power.....weird right....prolly on his phone or taking a nap like most teslidicks
Blood test will reveal all
Apparently it was travelling at 70 mph
That planter didn’t do a whole lot to stop the car. Assuming they put them there for that. Also, they should be able to tell if it really was the brakes that failed or they were sleeping on auto pilot
Its more common ppl sleeping at the wheel on autopilot but the car's data recorder will tell the truth
The plant is like a goalie trying to stop a puck.
The plant's father is like.. "you got this son, you can do it."
It was 75mph.... It wasn't meant to stop idiots going criminal speed
a 3500lbs car traveling at 75mph isn't going to be stopped by a planter 💀 It wasn't even stopped by the building so why would you expect a planter to be any better
Autopilot doesn’t go 45 mph over the speed limit and it doesn’t go careening off the road. It drives like a granny - I use it every day.
"Drunk driver loses control of stupid EV" should be the title. These cars literally slow to a stop without using brakes.
How did the brakes fail if he pressed on the gas... LOL!
With all those sensors and intelligent technology, I am skeptical of brakes failing without intrusion from the tesla system.
Awesome
Amazing
The regen braking can stop the car decently even at high speeds although harder. I have a cheap as hell EV that does it.
No mention on how this guy seems to be completely fine?! All jokes aside, Tesla’s must have one hell of a safety rating! 70 miles an hour slammed into a building column and he didn’t have any large injuries?
They do but I don't think the car was going 70. Notice the glass roof didn't even shatter. That was a high rate of speed and the car did a magnificent job of protecting the driver.
Tesla have the highest safety rating on all of their models. Not to mention it helps a lot when there is no conbustion engine in the front that could be pressed into your body in this type of crash.
@@TheOnXboxers also not to mention the fact the battery is on the bottom of the model x helping it not roll over nearly as much as other SUVs
@@TheOnXboxers combustion engine mounts have been designed to break and drop the motor down to the ground since like the 90s I don’t think any crashes have seen that and if they have the people we’re bound to die anyways because they would have been haulin ass
Went through glass and aluminum it's not that amazing. Now if it had plowed through a cinderblock wall and been fine that'd be crazy.
If the brakes did indeed fail he could have stayed on the freeway until it slowed down to a complete stop. Also how did he not flip over while exiting the free way?
I think its because the battery is on the bottom of the car to help with stability
There’s no report of the brakes “failing”. The driver just said he lost control of the brakes which could mean many things. My interpretation is that he hit the wrong pedal and panicked.
When you drive a Tesla removing your foot from the gas pedal is like applying light breaks. It'll slow down rather quickly even without breaking.
Can't blame the driver, they were in the backseat sleeping😂
trust me, if Teslas really ever uncontrollably accelerated like this, there’d be so many lawsuits that Tesla would go bankrupt. it’s driver error.
Just bcoz it hasn't happened doesn't mean it couldn't happen in future.

“Out of control Tesla” if it was any other vehicle the make and model would have never been mentioned.
Exactly. And we have seen people driving at high speeds into buildings since CCTV was implemented.
It has to be a Tesla. It's how media gets views.
When has the make and model ever been relevant to an accident like this? This seems odd, the computers on board will tell the story.
Imagine if that was any other car. The building would've caught fire or the driver would die, or possibly both
This actually seems very unlikely, because all Teslas actually have 2 brakes: caliper brakes(standard), and regenerative brakes. For those who don’t know, regenerative brakes use the motor to slow you down. Not saying it isn’t impossible, but it seems unlikely that the regenerative brakes, and caliper brakes both failed.
It's not a renerative brake, it's the engine itself that is both a generator and a motor by nature :)
this is all electronic or fly-by-wire, and the fact that driver can change the regen setting prove that is is not hard-wired at all and it is electronics.
I’m familiar with the area and lived there for years. There’s no way he was able to get off the highway and onto a side street before doing this lol
I don't live in the area but I thought about how car the highway was from the convention center.
I’d never think out of all cars the cars in the world, a Tesla would be the one to spin out of control
Blaming the car for this accident, is like blaming a shooting on the gun alone. Unless the brakes actually “failed” on the highway. Although, I have a feeling if that were the case the driver wouldn’t have made it that far.

Tesla can easily pull up the info and determine if the brakes really failed. Otherwise, it sounds like a quick excuse for driving recklessly and running a red light.
Its technically a good thing he did as he did not try and crash into other vehicles or people and he survived its a good choice in this situation
I feel like I’d rather hit a parked empty car that would cost 5,000-100,000 then a building that costs 250,000-300,000. This persons insurance is going to be out of control expensive till the day they die.
