Between all the gadgets and the self-driving shit, it's surprising this doesn't happen more often...

 If you've never seen the interior in these cars, you'll freak out. There are no gauges, no dials, nothing. Just a computer screen. Fuck that... 

This accident(?) happened about ten miles from my house. 
The couple in the car were decapitated. The Tesla - a 2015 model - was driving on Interstate-75 when it exited off the highway onto the rest stop ramp 'for an unknown reason,' Florida Highway Patrol said in statement. The car then drove through the parking lot where it rear-ended the trailer of a Walmart 18-wheeler, killing the 66-year-old female driver and a 67-year-old male passenger. 
Photos from the scene show the front end of a red Tesla jammed under the overhang of a Walmart trailer, the top end of the car sheared violently back past the car's front doors. The victims, both from Lompoc, California, were pronounced dead at the scene. The accident is the second Tesla crash in a week to be investigated by the NHTSA.
