Description

CBS Dallas/Fort Worth May 11, 2021 Home security camera footage shows that the owner of a Tesla got into the driver's seat of the car shortly before a deadly crash in suburban Houston last month, according to a government report Monday, May 10. But the preliminary report on the crash that killed two men doesn't explain why police found no one behind the wheel of the car, which burst into flames after crashing about 550 feet from the owner's home. The National Transportation Safety Board said it's still investigating the crash.
