An electric car Tesla S had an accident in the state of Utah, USA, the night of this Friday.

According to local media, the car, driven by a 28-year-old girl, ran a red light and collided with the back of a fire truck at a speed of 100 km / h.

As a result of the accident, the woman was taken by ambulance to a hospital with a broken clavicle. According to preliminary data, no one else was injured.

Currently the local police is investigating if the driver was using the autopilot at the time of the collision.

Earlier, US media reported that two teenagers died on May 8 in a terrible accident of a Tesla S outside of Miami.

According to reports, the vehicle crashed at full speed against a concrete wall and immediately caught fire. As a result, two high school students from the city of Fort Lauderdale failed to leave the car and were burned alive. Another 18-year-old passenger managed to survive, thanks to rescuers pulling him out of the back seat.

An examination has shown that the driver and passenger of the front seat died, apparently, victims of the flammable battery of the electric car. The authorities are conducting an investigation.
