Tesla Rear-Ends Truck At 60 MPH

A woman is in the hospital after her Tesla Model S collided with the back of a Unified Fire Authority mechanic truck Friday night on Bangerter Highway. According to South Jordan Police, the Tesla was traveling southbound on Bangerter Highway (SR-154) around 6:30 p.m. before it crashed into the truck that had been stopped at the red light at 10400 South.
While police are still investigating whether or not the car was using the autopilot feature at the time, they say it does not appear any brakes were applied before the accident.
