I took the original photos of this accident in Kelowna, British Columbia. The media only posted two photos. I took a series of pictures showing the position of the vehicles in relation to each other. There were 4 vehicles involved in the collision. There is a short video as

If this is some sort of attempt at Trolling, you suck at it. Though now your Post-Count makes sense, If I were an Admin I'd Ban-hammer you... Lucky I'm not.

The gold vehicle appears to have front end damage, so I'd wager it was the gold one that hit the Civic. The X could have hit the gold vehicle into the Civic though...
Yeah. It's just weird that the X is the only car without rear end damage, which would make you think it was at the back end of the whole thing, but then it's positioned right in the middle in the photos. I am guessing whoever hit the Civic then veered into the RH lane and continued forward.

If you look on the ground behind the Silver Civic, doesn't that look like the wheel well arch from the left side of the Model X?
If it was two, two car collisions how did the Honda get hit in the front and back. That would seem to be at least a three car collision to me.
I don't know how you can say that it seems like AEB didn't work, we don't have enough details. (And remember AEB will only reduce the impact speed by 25 MPH.)
That's what the article said "A witness on the scene said it looked like there were two separate collisions, with the second one caused by the drivers trying to avoid the first. "
Good point, I still can't believe Tesla's AEB will only reduce the speed by 25mph instead of bringing the vehicle to a stop or near stop. That system seems so antiquated. At this price range you'd expect something up to date, even class leading, but Tesla's current AEB is neither of those and should be updated ASAP.

KZKZ, Mercedes called. Your check is ready. Should I have them mail it to you?
But that would make it 3 two car collisions. (Honda rear ends truck, Gold car rear ends Honda, Model X rear ends gold car. Or something like that.)
It will be interesting if we get more details of just how that happened.

Looks to me like the X pushed the gold Accord into the silver Civic, the silver Civic into the truck and then continued to push the gold Accord past the other two.
