Nope, he drove 80km/h with traction control, but lost consciousness somehow. No lines on the road (out in the German countryside) so no line assist. Car went straight when there was a very mild turn, so he drove off the road, into some uphill ridge whi h launched him, woke up when flying through the air after which he landed in a bunch of trees.
This is where he landed. He luckily only had 4 broken ribs.
Friend of mine bought an EV. Didn’t even last a month. He landed in a tree.
“landed”?
Then the wheels just fell off. Stupid woke EVs are built to fail.
Usually they build them so the wheels don’t fall off.
Then explain that pic 😤
Pretty sure they’re being facetious
So was I
Ah yes, classic
Yeah, got launched when drifting off the road
Lemmy: Capitalism caused this.
In a socialist system cars would be tree proof.
I’m sure if we spend enough time working on it, we can figure out how this is all OPEC’s fault. /s (jeeze tho I hope your friend was okay!)
He luckily only has 4 broken ribs.
Sad to see an i5 in that condition :(
Goddamn planned obsolescence.
*planted obsolescence
damn wild trees crossing street
What was the issue? Do you know?
Probably turned off traction control and floored it. EVs have some pretty solid acceleration and weight a bit more than their ICE counterparts.

Jeez, he’s lucky to be alive at all.
Handing out driving licences like they were sweets instead of actually testing people’s ability to drive, maybe?
Lost consciousness for a bit. Unknown why.
Not really the fault of the EV then tho :D
