Check out this short video.
Anoushah Rasta on Twitter, starting 26 seconds, you can see individual 18650 cells, and the battery compartment shell structure exposed. Main battery fire quite likely - from the information so far, the front divider/median was hit by the car and enough intrusion and force to break down the front section of the main battery compartment. Cannot see the front motor.
pic of barrier before crash (you can see the barrier's crumple zone/structure which is squeezed in the accident). Was it a head-on collision? It might be slightly offset as the left front wheel is right next to barrier where-as right front wheel is further off. Giving me reason to believe the car was making a turn away from 85-S ramp and back into 101-S (making a right turn). Not sure it was a delayed manual steering movement by driver, Or, AP doing some decisions based on lane marking. Prayers for the driver. Thanks to the transportation agency for providing those crumple zones in front of concrete barriers. May be in some other car, it could have been a fatality - let's hope Tesla's MX safety design helps save this driver's life - in the end matters the most to the driver at this point.
