Witnesses say the Tesla lost control after hitting a road bump at high speed.

Although apparently the occupant survived the crash initially, witnesses say they weren’t able to pull them out before intense fire started and burned the driver to death.

A neighbor told CBS13 that, upon hearing a loud bang, they rushed to the scene to try and help the driver.

“I really wasn’t thinking. It was just instinct,” said neighbor Juan Oranday.

Oranday said he witnessed the Tesla crash into the parked car just outside his home.

After running up to it he found a mangled car with a person still in the driver’s seat, who he says was not alert.

“I tried my best. I wish I was quicker for them,” Oranday said. “It just shows that life is valuable and seconds really do matter.”

He and other neighbors tried to cut the driver from their seatbelt and free them from the inflated airbag when the car quickly caught fire.

“The smoke went immediately to my face. The flames engulfed everything so quickly it was just tragic,” Oranday said.
