Glad the family is ok! That's the most important thing. Thanks for sharing the pic! Looks like a harrowing hit.

In this untrained eye, the truck did exactly what it was designed to do; protect it's passengers.

Wishing everyone a speedy recovery!

@johnm6875 glad you and family are ok! Sad your Cybertruck gave its life to protect all of you. This is exactly why I purchased a Tesla in 2018 and will always have a Tesla in my garage.

...

Anyone else concerned that our trucks maybe accident magnets? ?
I am concerned. People may be too busy looking at your truck and not paying attention to where they are heading and inadvertently drifting into your vehicle. It may have been the case here.

Thank god all escaped.
Glad family is ok.
Wishing them speedy recovery.


How does replacement work ?
Let’s assume insurance covers 100% , but who provides replacement truck ?
SERIOUS QUESTION

Might this be a reason to get insurance with Tesla?

A guy crossed over the double yellow and I could not get out of the way fast enough. We were both at highway speeds.. My wife, granddaughter and I we're all shaken and are being evaluated (at the emergency room and I'm bored, hence the reason for the post). No critical injuries. The other guy was taken to the hospital in an ambulance. We were spun but not flipped. Thank you Tesla engineering and manufacturing.

This truck gave its life for us. I'll be getting another

It's life was not given in vain. Your Cybertruck will be remembered for decades, nay, centuries! All hail and Godspeed, dude.

I'm glad your family is safe.
If there is a recorded video, I would like to see it.
I'd also like to see photos of the condition of the other person's vehicle.

It seems to be. Not just rubber-neckers drifting into your lane but I am experiencing a lot of aggression from other drivers with feelings of inadequacy. Have to be extra careful changing lanes because often someone will rush up to block me as soon as I turn on my turn signal. I don't experience this much in my other cars - even the M3. Thank goodness for the excellent visibility provided by the cameras.

How is the family doing at this point? Keep us updated with the insurance process too please as many are interested in signing up for the Tesla insurance when its available. And lastly, have you had a chance to recover the video yet?
