We had a similar situation when Teslas were new here in Europe and a Model X crashed head on into the median on the autobahn at full speed (130km/h or 80mph).

The guy died because he didn’t wear any seatbelt and was ejected from the car. The car looked horrendous but he would have survived if he wore a seatbelt.

Doesn’t stop the media from printing “Tesla kills driver” for 2 weeks straight.
