Not many details have been released yet to explain why a Tesla suddenly veered off a road in Colorado and crashed at speed.

According to Colorado State Patrol Trooper Gabriel Moltrer, around 5:54 p.m., troopers were dispatched to the crash involving a 71-year-old Tesla driver.

Moltrer said a crash investigation showed the Tesla was heading west off of South Boulder Road when the front of the vehicle collided with an embankment before going airborne.

The Tesla then rolled an unknown number of times before coming to rest on its wheels facing north, according to Moltrer.

Molter said the Tesla was the only vehicle involved in the crash and the driver was the only occupant.
