On Wednesday morning, a tragic collision occurred in the Max Feffer Tunnel in South São Paulo between a Tesla Cybertruck and a motorcycle, resulting in the death of the motorcyclist. The incident was captured on a security camera and has raised questions about the circumstances of the accident. The driver of the Tesla, 36-year-old dentist and influencer Igor Costa Alves, was reportedly navigating the traffic light, which was green for him, as he entered the tunnel and collided with the motorcycle that was proceeding straight.

The collision was severe, with the motorcycle being dragged approximately 10 meters after impact. Eyewitness accounts and initial reports from the São Paulo State Public Security Secretariat indicate that the motorcycle was likely at fault, although the investigation is ongoing to clarify the details. Igor Costa Alves remained at the scene to assist and provided the footage from his vehicle's camera to the authorities. Notably, the alcohol test administered did not indicate any impairment, and there were no reports of excessive speed.

This incident has sparked discussions regarding road safety, particularly concerning electric vehicles like the Tesla Cybertruck, as their presence on the roads increases. Authorities will need to thoroughly investigate the factors contributing to this fatal accident, including adherence to traffic signals and the behavior of both the motorcyclist and the Tesla driver. Such incidents underscore the critical importance of road safety measures and the potential for tragic outcomes in cases of traffic collisions.
