Tesla Roadster Crashes at 100mph During Demo

by Stephanie Rogers · View Comments

Evidently there’s something about Tesla Roadsters that makes people want to take dumb risks, because there have been quite a few high-profile crashes lately. Sure, the electric sports car is pretty sexy and lends itself to some showing off for passengers and onlookers. But, taking a wet corner at 100mph seems like a sure way to end up in the hospital.

Luckily for the guy – and his passenger, to whom he was giving a demo – they escaped the crash without injuries despite the passenger getting thrown out of the car. There are only 50 of these cars and now 3 of them have been virtually destroyed – one rear-ended a truck and another rammed another car at a stoplight.

No doubt it’s exciting to drive, but it’s not the Batmobile. Take a little more care, Tesla Roadster owners!
