Tesla owned vehicle so you won't see much footage since they're probably trying hard to suppress them. totaled by a corolla. and the only person to sustain any type of injury was driving the CT. corolla 1, cyberbox 0.

"The CHP summary of the accident: "On December 28, 2023 at approximately 2:05 pm, CHP Redwood City units were dispatched to a two-vehicle crash on SR-35 (Skyline Boulevard), south of Page Mill Road. Our preliminary investigation indicates a Toyota Corolla was traveling south on SR-35 southbound, south of Page Mill Road, at an unknown speed, when the driver, for unknown reasons, turned to the right and subsequently struck a dirt embankment on the right shoulder. The Toyota then re-entered the roadway, crossed over the double yellow lines into the northbound lane, and crashed into a Tesla Cybertruck traveling north on SR-35 northbound. The Tesla driver sustained a suspected minor injury and declined medical transportation. No other injuries were reported. It does not appear that the Tesla Cybertruck was being operated in autonomous mode. The investigation into this incident is ongoing."

This damage is structural, the chassis of the car is one solid die cast (like a big hotwheels car), you can't repair that quarter panel and the likely very bent frame below it without replacing the entire bones of the car. And if you don't repair it, that spot will forever be it's Achilles heel, and effect it's characteristics in all accidents (also, just generally, be a major liability to everyone on the road).
