TMC Member Safe After Serious Crash in Model 3

TMC member antari and his family are safe after their Model 3 was involved in a high-speed collision on I-90 near Seattle.

“I hear some vehicles approach at high speed from behind. Then suddenly I hear a screeching sound from a car breaking hard, and then a car slams into my rear end – hard,” antari posted on TMC. “I was going 65, so that vehicle must have been going significantly faster. From there I lose control of the car, and the car spins out of control, hitting the freeway divider wall all the way on the other side of the freeway 4 lanes across, and then bouncing back all the way back to the other side of the freeway and hitting that wall before coming to a stop.”

Antari said the Model 3 performed “miraculously.” He said crumple zones compressed, airbags deployed, there was no fire after the accident, and no one in the family was seriously injured.

Eyewitnesses reported that a Camaro SS was racing a BMW M4 when it struck the Model 3.

It’s great to hear the Model 3’s safety features performed well in the crash and the family is safe. Here’s hoping the family has a new Tesla in the garage soon.
