- Images appeared showing a Tesla model 3 crushed by a semi-camon.
- The most shocking aspect is that Tesla’s driver was not killed in the accident.
- He was so impressed by the force of model 3 that he has since bought another Tesla.
We have probably all seen these dark YouTube videos and Russian smartphone clips from India Dashcam where a car is plowed or crushed by a truck and you just know that no one in the car has been living alive. The images of a flat 3 model on this page resemble one of these tragedies, except that, incredibly, the Tesla driver survived.
Two images show the 3 prefacelift 3 model 3 stuck under a semi-trailer which is rolled on top of the EV. The entire passenger compartment to the trunk seems to have been crushed at the window or lower.

And the blows of the Tesla once the truck was lifted is no less breathtaking. The car is completely destroyed, its windshield tilted about 15 degrees from horizontal and what remains of the glass roof also used located about one foot (300 mm) lower than where it was once located.
Fortunately for the driver, his part of the cabin managed to get out of it better than the rest of the car, probably because it was struck by less weight. The driver would have escaped the accident with only cuts and bruises, but looking at the wreckage, we can say that he is lucky that he does not transport passengers. They would probably all be dead.

Writing on X, a Tesla driver business partner, @Mensurmvisuals, said that model 3 sailed on the highway when a truck next to him lost control and overturned on the EV. Pact X said that Tesla’s driver was so impressed by the strength of model 3 that he had picked up a whole new Tesla three weeks later.
The comments on X and Reddit, where it also appeared, seem to be divided between those who think that Tesla’s exceptional force saved the day, in a way that no other car brand would have done, and those who think that the driver was lucky, simple than that.

I brought in a customer and tell myself this story about how he left with only stripes of an accident that was involved with him and his model 3. The customer was driving on the highway when a truck next to him lost control and completely crushed his model 3. The … pic.twitter.com/yyzhqjpy
