A crash July 6, 2022, at an interstate rest area near Gainesville, Fla., killed a couple from Lompoc, Calif. The family of a California couple who were killed in the crash of their Tesla has named the carmaker in a wrongful-death suit.
The suit does not specify the alleged defect, but it does mention the car was equipped with “crash avoidance and crash mitigation features.” The Florida Highway Patrol report said the Tesla left southbound Interstate 75 at the Paynes Prairie Rest Area just before 2 p.m. July 6. Where the exit split into two lanes — one for cars, the other for trucks and buses — the Tesla veered toward the truck lot. It ran into a parked Walmart truck; the front of the Tesla went under the trailer, and its roof was crushed by impact with the lower edge.
