The moment you dread... Having to come to a stop on the freeway and seeing the car behind coming up too fast. I can see on the rear camera as a 100 foot separation behind me drops to zero quickly. As we get the hit, it feels like my seat wraps around me.
Felt like a hard hit and i told my wife, the car had just been totaled. Seems like we're both ok, though people say the next day is when you really find out...
So I call 911, she goes to check on the driver behind us. His air bag deployed, but seems to be ok. Highway patrol tells me later that since the airbag deployed, he was going at least 30 mph.
I dont get put since i have 60 mph traffic going by my door.. I asked my wife, how bad is the damage to the rear? She only sees a minor scrape. No glass, etc on the ground. No Tesla alarms either. Cars seems completely drivable. The CHP guy is amazed. His first accident scene with a tesla.
We'll take it in to the shop to check it out tomorrow. What a safe car.
