Man hospitalized following accident at Burning Man, where a Tesla Cybertruck ran him over and pinned him underneath, according to his family, who described the incident as occurring nearly silently amidst the night's commotion.
At the recent Burning Man festival, a tragic incident occurred involving a Tesla Cybertruck. JP, a festival-goer and family member, was run over by the all-electric truck, resulting in severe injuries.
JP was meditating on the playa outside their camp when the accident happened. The Cybertruck's quietness, large size, and sharp edges could have contributed to the incident. JP was pinned beneath the truck and had to scream for help.
The aftermath of the accident has sparked discussions among fellow Cybertruck owners. While some, such as Travis from Texas, argue that the truck, not the driver, was responsible for the incident, others, like the Cybertruck owner from Cleveland, suggest that JP was at fault for lying in the street.
Despite the ongoing debate, most Cybertruck owners share the view that the truck shouldn't be blamed in the situation. Jade, JP's wife, shared the story on Facebook, where it was reposted on the Cybertruck Owners Club forum.
JP is currently in the hospital facing months of recovery and lost wages. A GoFundMe page has been set up to help JP and his family during this difficult time. As of now, the fundraiser has reached 53% of its goal, with $32,000 raised of the $60,000 target.
The accident has also raised concerns about the negative press the Cybertruck might receive. Cybertruck Wraps, a forum member, expressed this concern, noting that the Cybertruck's stainless steel exterior, with its sharp and thick corners, may not have helped in preventing the accident.
On a more positive note, the development of a full-sized SUV inspired by the Cybertruck has Tesla fans celebrating. This new vehicle could potentially increase TSLA's market cap by $300 billion.
The search results do not provide information about who drove the Cybertruck art car at Burning Man, the city where the accident occurred, or any details about a GoFundMe account for JP and his family. However, the incident serves as a reminder of the importance of road safety, especially with the increasing presence of electric vehicles at events like Burning Man.
