First ever Tesla Cybertruck involved in head-on collision and the damage has left people shocked
A recent car crash involving the highly anticipated Tesla Cybertruck has become a hot topic on social media after images of the aftermath surfaced. The California Highway Patrol (CHP) responded to the accident on Thursday, December 28, involving two vehicles, a Tesla Cybertruck and a Toyota Corolla, in a head-on collision.
While head-on collisions often result in severe injuries or fatalities, this incident had a surprising outcome. The Tesla driver, involved in one of the vehicles, emerged with only minor injuries and declined hospitalization, contrasting the potentially serious nature of such accidents.
However, what captured the attention of Reddit and Tesla enthusiasts was the condition of the Cybertruck after the crash. The CHP’s initial report outlined that the Toyota Corolla, traveling south, veered to the right, hit an embankment, re-entered the road, crossed into the northbound lane, and collided with the Cybertruck. The Tesla driver sustained suspected minor injuries, but the Cybertruck seemed remarkably intact.
Shared images on Reddit by a passerby revealed patrol officers near the Tesla, which, despite deploying airbags, appeared to be in good condition, especially when compared to the severely damaged Toyota.
Social media users expressed surprise at the apparent lack of damage to the Cybertruck. Some comments highlighted the Cybertruck’s seemingly unscathed condition, with users speculating about its drivability. However, others cautioned that a comprehensive assessment would require viewing the other side of the vehicle, and it could still be declared a total loss.
The CHP investigation into the incident is ongoing, and while the Cybertruck’s resilience has sparked online discussions, the full extent of the damage may only be revealed upon further examination.
