Imagine you’re stuck in crawling traffic, inching forward behind a big rig, sipping your coffee, when out of nowhere a Tesla blows past you on the shoulder like it’s the Indy 500. You grit your teeth. But seconds later, karma hits the Tesla—with the force of a 80,000-pound semi truck.

That’s exactly what one Redditor watched go down in glorious slow-motion. “He sped by on the left shoulder until he ran out of space between the center divide and a big truck.” The Tesla driver “kept nosing forward like he expected the truck to move enough for him to get by.” But it wasn’t happening. “The truck driver didn’t give a s— and wasn’t moving over.”

Tesla tries shoulder stunt, meets big rig justice

The semi didn’t budge. The trailer scraped the Tesla door-to-door like a “car getting slowly crushed in a junkyard.” Then it caught the rearview mirror and whole side of the car lifted a foot into the air. Finally, the mirror snapped off and the whole thing came crashing back down.

The witness said, “I just couldn’t believe what I was seeing.” But the rest of the traffic? They were loving it. “People were actually clapping.”

And it wasn’t just polite golf claps. One commenter joked, “Clapping? Then who was holding the wheel?!” Another said, “he played a stupid game and won first prize.”

When a Tesla meets a truck, Reddit rejoices

The aftermath had real Fast & Furious energy—minus the stunt crew. The Tesla “sped back in the opposite direction (sans mirror, of course).” One passenger “was trying to hide her very decked-out self.”

Commenters brought popcorn. “I love hearing about Tesla owners and their demises.” And another summed it up best: “Since he was driving a Tesla it’s logical to assume he had amazing video… pure evidence of his dumba—–.” See the original Reddit post for yourself, embedded below:
