婚禮前夕開著Model X被偷車賊撞了 - 轎車

一位叫做John Tran的男子在加州的San Jose進行婚禮彩排

晚餐結束後他獨自駕駛為了婚禮租來的Model X被偷車賊撞了

偷車賊以時速至少65mph開著偷來的銀色轎車正在被警車以及直升機追著

然後就撞上正要左轉的Model X

這位John Tran很幸運的沒有受什麼傷，自行從車子脫困，只有手跟腳踝有點痠痛

偷車賊開的車看不太出來是什麼牌子的車

車子前方可以看到很明顯的一個輪胎印

Model X的左前輪則是被撞掉了


幸好是撞到前軸，如果往後50-100公分直接撞上駕駛座可能就沒那麼幸運

Tesla鐵塊般的電池底盤跟較重的車重應該也是起到了一定的保護作用

一般重心較高的SUV或MPV很可能會被撞翻

Man credits Tesla for saving his life after stolen car crashed into his
rented Model X the day before his wedding

We heard plenty of crazy stories of Tesla drivers crediting Tesla’s
vehicles for saving their lives after severe accidents, like when a Model
S driver walked away unscathed from a crash ~500-ft down a hill last
month or when a Model X crashed into a semi-truck earlier this year.

Now we have a similar story today of a man crediting Tesla for saving his
life after a stolen car in a chase with the police crashed into the Model
X that he rented for his wedding the next day.


John Tran shared a spectacular picture of the crash on Instagram – see
above and below – and described the accident after he was leaving his
rehearsal dinner on May 5th in San Jose:

“As I was pulling out of the parking stall and onto the mall loop
street, I began to make my left turn to get onto the road. Just as I’m
completing my turn a stolen silver car that was running away from police
and helicopters going at least 65 mph, plows directly into my driver side
door and immediately send me 20-30 ft away from my original spot. All
airbags deploy and I’m seeing nothing but smoke in the cabin. At this
point, I try to open the door by hand, but it’s stuck, and my right hand
is swollen like a pillow. I try again by kicking my way out and am able
to free myself. I get out and I see the drivers book it, and quickly
followed by cops. Soon after an amazing mother and daughter who saw the
whole thing happen came to help me and woke me up. Randomly friends who
just happened to be in the lot saw me laying on the ground and assisted
me up from my daze. Eventually they catch 1 of the 2 runners and I’m
left with a busted wedding car sore hand, ankle, and ego.”

He went to the ER, but he said that he was virtually unharmed. The San
Jose fire department told him that he was lucky to be alive after a crash
at that speed – something he instead credited to Tesla.

Tran thanked Elon Musk and Tesla for “building an amazing life-saving
machine.”

While he couldn’t use the rented Model X for his wedding, Tran was so
impressed by the vehicle’s safety that he is now looking to buy one for
himself and his wife.

The Model X achieved the highest safety rating of any SUV thanks in part
to a very low center of gravity due to its large battery pack located on
the floor of the vehicle along the entire chassis, which is something
that probably helped Tran in this case.

Here’s a look at the Model X’s safety features.
