Video shows Tesla car involved in fatal accident in 13th arrondissement, driving at high speed for a few moments


A car launched at full speed.

This is shown in a video taken moments before the fatal accident of December 11 involving a Tesla, in the 13th arrondissement of Paris.

Technical failure of the Tesla or misconduct?

This is what must determine the judicial information opened by the Paris prosecutor's office.

On December 11, 2021, a taxi driver who was not on duty was traveling in the 13th arrondissement of Paris aboard his Tesla, with his wife and daughters, when he lost control of his vehicle.

The taxi struck two pedestrians, then a glass container which, in shock from the speed, was thrown into the air and exploded on the ground.

The vehicle then struck a traffic light, also thrown into the air.

He finished his race in a van in circulation in the middle of the crossroads, according to the account of a police source.
