Dharmesh Patel of Pasadena plunged over 250ft off coastal road in Tesla with two young children and adult passenger – all survived
. Authorities said they had not determined the driving mode the Tesla was in during the crash but did not believe it was a “contributing factor in this incident”.
The sedan slammed into a crag, apparently flipped several times and landed on its wheels. It came to rest mere feet from the water, officials said. Highway patrol officers and other emergency responders were dispatched to the scene, where they spotted the vehicle and rappelled down the cliff, rescuing all inside. The four occupants were taken to hospital with “serious injuries”, authorities said.
