Another day, another Tesla suddenly veers off a road and kills someone.
The crash took place about 5:20 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 20, at Joshua and South roads in Apple Valley, San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department officials said.
Romo was at the wheel of a Tesla Model 3 headed south on Joshua Road just before the crash, the sheriff’s department said in a written statement. A 38-year-old Apple Valley man was riding as a passenger.
“The Tesla lost control and veered off the west roadway edge, went airborne after hitting a dirt berm, and rolled several times,” the statement said.
Notably, the crash happened on a clear evening with empty and dry roads.
