This unlikely encounter, made even more so having taken place in Denmark shows how alternate energy cars can do anything conventional cars can.
As described by Steen, reportedly the driver of the Tesla: Traffic was stopped for road construction work, the Prius driver didn’t notice the slow down running into a motorcycle, then the Tetrus pushing it under the VW Touareg. Sending 6 people to the hospital, all released within a few hours.
The Tesla’s sturdy Lotus chassis design and carbon fiber body panels seem to be doing their job holding up the much heavier Touareg SUV.
Denmark’s 180% gas car tax, in addition to a base 25% sales tax accounts for the higher statistical likelihood of 2 alternate energy cars meeting on the highways in like this way.
