A few days ago, a serious traffic accident occurred on the Shanghai Inner Ring Elevated Highway, this time for a four-car rear-end collision. In the accident, it is worth noting that a BYD Song Pro was topped up by the Tesla Model 3. According to relevant channels, the cause of the accident is suspected to be a collision between Model 3 when the Autopilot automatic driving assistance function is turned on. According to the owner, the cruising distance at that time was set to 1, and when bydiring the Song Pro braked sharply, due to speed, distance and other reasons, the Tesla Model 3 collided with it. In this accident, the front of the Tesla Model 3 was seriously damaged, and there were no casualties. The specific cause of the accident has yet to be officially confirmed.
As can be seen from the scene map, due to the height difference between the two vehicles and the strong impact force, the BYD Song Pro was lifted by the Tesla Model 3. The Tesla Model 3 has great damage in the front cabin cover, headlights, front encirclement, front windshield and other areas. The main damage parts of BYD Song Pro are in the vehicle chassis, fenders and so on. There are currently no photographs of the front of the car, and the rear surface of the car is not much damaged.
Of course, the cause of the accident has yet to be confirmed by the police, but the responsibility is obvious, and the rear-end is fully responsible. Whether the cause of the accident is because of the Model 3's Autopilot auto-assisted driving function is not yet known, although level 1 is the shortest reaction time, but if it is because of a setup problem, it means that the system is still very flawed. More news about the accident, EV car life will also continue to pay attention.
