Reddit user, OneTrueGod, posted a photo of his recent accident and thankfully he wasn’t hurt.
A drunk driver was driving in a Chevy Tahoe and speeding in a 25mph lane when he ran a stop sign. The SUV t-boned OneTrueGod’s Model S.
Initially the driver tried to flee the scene but he was arrested and charged with felony DUI according to the police.
I took delivery of my new Model 3 about a week ago and I am thoroughly impressed.
The Model 3 is an amazing car. First, the car looks and feels like a Tesla. I’m glad that they kept many of the exterior design features of the Model S as the Model 3 looks like a slightly smaller Model S. Driving the cars feels like vintage Tesla. Instant torque, seamless acceleration, and great handling. In fact, since the Model 3 is a smaller car, it handles curves much more adeptly than its big brother the Model S. Under 60mph, the Model 3 is a much more fun and nimble car to drive. At the end of every day this past week I was left thinking, “Wow! This is a great car!”
The interior of the Model 3 is the future of Tesla interior design. I personally think they nailed the interior design and it feels great inside. The seats feel great. The simplicity in design is stunning. I was quickly able to get used to the 15” center screen and wasn’t bothered by the lack of a driver console screen. Some people online have complained about how some of the functions work on the 15” screen, but I know all of the software can and will be improved upon. What they have right now is a fantastic start and is more than capable.
