The recently released Tesla Cybertruck was involved in an accident for the first time. This happened in the city of Palo Alto in California. The pickup truck collided with a Toyota Corolla, causing serious damage to it; the Tesla itself suffered minimal damage.





An accident involving a new Tesla Cybertruck pickup truck with a Toyota Corolla occurred on the road in Palo Alto, California, USA. The culprit is considered to be a 17-year-old Toyota driver: for unknown reasons, he decided to turn right, drove onto an embankment, and when he drove back onto the road, he lost control and crashed into a Cybertruck. Thanks to the deployed airbags, he was not injured. The Tesla driver suffered minor injuries and refused medical treatment.



The consequences of the accident were filmed and published online by a Reddit forum user who was passing by. The footage shows that the Toyota was badly damaged: it lost its front bumper, and the left side of the hood was seriously damaged. Only the rear left wheel fender of the Tesla was damaged, and scratches are visible on the body. Many commentators noted the reliability of the car.





"A Toyota Corolla was traveling south on SR-35 at an unknown speed when the driver, for unknown reasons, turned right and struck an embankment on the right shoulder. Weather conditions were wet and cloudy. The Toyota then re-entered the roadway, crossed the double lane and entered the road and struck a Tesla Cybertruck traveling north on SR-35," the California Highway Patrol wrote.
