Man seriously injured in North York crash - CityNews Toronto

Saw this happened while taking delivery of a Model 3 this morning. My sister is a medical doctor and we went to help the injured driver. What a dramatic day!

I read the headline and thought you picked up your 3 and then crashed it later the same day :-O

There wasn’t a Tesla implicated.

Hope they're okay. Cabin looks intact and airbags deployed. It's an Audi?

If the news outlets get hold of this I'm sure they'll find a way to spin it - "Latest Tesla models cause driver to lose control". The picture will help.

Headline like this ?

"Driver distracted by Tesla autopilot user causes accident in front of Tesla store."

It was a CRV. The driver wasn't able to get up but was conscious after the crash.
I took out my phone, don't judge me

Ah, I was driving by there yesterday around 11:40am and went around on Railside Rd due to the lane reductions. I was worried a Tesla was involved! phew

What the heck did they hit and at what speed? That's a salvage/scrap hunk of a car.

More details pls. What hit the CR-V? All the parties involved ok? I gather from the posts that no Tesla was hurt =D

My sister and I were in the SC for her 3 delivery. I drive the X. Heard a loud bang while going through the documents, we looked up the glass wall, saw a car crashed outside the building. Many people from the SC ran out to help the crv driver. From what I saw, 1 person was injured and taken care by the ambulance. No Tesla was hurt. However, small debris everywhere near the entrance may hurt tesla tires.
