A minute after I posted news about a German death from Tesla hitting a tree, here comes the UK with its own version of the Tesla tragedy.
Officers and paramedics were called to High Side, Parson Drove, near Wisbech, at about 7pm yesterday (Tuesday September 2). A blue Tesla Model 3, which had been heading north towards Parson Drove, had crashed into the tree. The driver, a man in his 60s from Leverington, was taken to Addenbrooke’s Hospital, in Cambridge, suffering from serious injuries.
The news from Germany is that a Tesla crashed into a car it tried to overtake and then into a tree, killing one person.
According to investigators’ current findings, the Tesla driver and the VW driver were traveling on Highway 240 between the towns of Huxahl and Beckedorf at approximately 8:25 a.m. According to reports, the Tesla driver attempted to overtake on the road. For reasons that remain unclear, both vehicles collided, and the drivers lost control of their cars.
This sudden unintended acceleration is almost the most expected test drive at a Tesla dealership.
Around 3:08 p.m., the Lawrence Township Police received a 9-1-1 call reporting that a vehicle had crashed into the showroom of the Tesla dealership at 3371 Brunswick Pike. On arrival, police found the front glass of the showroom shattered and a 2025 Tesla Model 3 inside of the building.
More expected would be a fire.
There seems to be a petty grudge driving government attacks on Harvard.
Michael Velchik, the government lawyer, received both his undergraduate and law degree from Harvard. …as a senior at Harvard, Velchik turned in a paper in the voice of Adolf Hitler in response to a prompt in his Latin class asking students to submit an essay written from the perspective of a controversial figure. The essay rattled the instructor, who asked Velchik to write a new paper…. “[I]s it bad that my favorite class at harvard was nietzsche and my favorite book i’ve read this year is mein kampf?” Velchik wrote in the June 2013 email.
Favorite book? Come on. And now he’s back. And he’s still mad about being told to write that new paper.
Donald Trump’s second White House chief of staff tried to stop him praising Adolf Hitler…. “He said, ‘Well, but Hitler did some good things’…” …it was “pretty hard to believe” Trump “missed the Holocaust” in his assessment of Hitler, “and pretty hard to understand how he missed the 400,000 American GIs that were killed in the European theatre” of the second world war.
Is it harder to believe that Trump missed it, than this Harvard graduate Trump has attacking Harvard?
Missing it seems to be the point for these guys.
