Tesla Dashcams Capture Car Slamming Into Semi-Truck on North Carolina Highway

Two dashcams on a Tesla captured a car crashing into a tractor-trailer while driving south on Interstate 77 in Charlotte, North Carolina, on May 4.

Dashcam footage shows the moment the sedan slams into the side of the semi-truck, crumpling its exterior and sending a hubcap rolling off one of the wheels.

The sedan “was going way too fast, so I actually punched the accelerator real quick to try to get away,” said Benjamin O’Morrow, the Tesla owner whose multiple cameras recorded the accident from different angles.

According to local media, no one sustained life-threatening injuries from the collision, but a few people did go to the hospital. Credit: Benjamin O’Morrow via Storyful
