The Tesla veered off road at 3am, the hallmark of a driverless failure. And since the snowflake of trucks touched dirt, it was abandoned.

The solo vehicle crash was reported at about 3:15 a.m. on July 20, 2025. According to the California Highway Patrol incident log, the driver of the Cybertruck lost control and the vehicle left the roadway near the area known as the Switchbacks, north of Oak Hills Road.

The futuristic all-electric truck landed roughly 600 feet from the roadway, lodged in deep brush but visible about 50 feet from the freeway side.

That was 600 feet too far for the Cybertruck.
