Sometimes you look at the vehicle and wonder how anyone walked away.
This Tesla came off second best against a guard rail — and thankfully, the driver walked away without even a scratch.
That is the best result you can hope for in a bad situation.
Cars can be repaired or replaced. People cannot.
Once everyone is safe, the next job is getting the vehicle recovered properly. With modern vehicles like Teslas, EVs and other late-model cars, you do not just drag them around and hope for the best. There can be battery systems, electronics, suspension damage, locked wheels, airbags and safety systems to consider.
That is where experience matters.
If you are ever involved in a crash:
Get yourself and passengers safe first.
Call 000 if anyone is injured or in danger.
Stay clear of traffic and damaged barriers.
Do not try to drive a badly damaged vehicle.
Call a licensed tow operator to recover it safely.
A crash like this is a good reminder that even when the driver is okay, the vehicle still needs to be handled with care.
