Perhaps the notable part of this newest Tesla crash is that so far no victim identification has been possible.
Just before 9 a.m., Thomas County deputies along with the Thomas Couty Fire Department and Georgia State Patrol responded to a wreck on U.S. 319 North near Merrillville Road, the sheriff’s office said in a social media post around 12:40 p.m. Monday. Deputies arrived and found a red Tesla vehicle fully engulfed in flames, according to TCSO. Two victims were found dead inside the vehicle, deputies said.
Update: this was yet another tragic “veered” crash into a tree, very typical of the Tesla mechanical, harware and software design defects:
On Dec. 23, Magarret Brion Smith, 35 and Karter Smith, 14, died in the crash when their Tesla struck a pecan tree, and became engulfed in flames.
The pace of Tesla crashes has alarmingly climbed to five times the rate of production, becoming known as the deadliest and most dangerous car on the road.

Thanks for sharing this update. While this crash appears similar to other Tesla incidents, specific data and investigation reports will likely connect it to design issues yet again. NHTSA findings and accident investigation records should better illustrate these patterns. I know these tragedies affect real families, so it’s worth it to everyone to keep discussing and being thorough in our analysis, sounding the alarm about Tesla.
