Angela Chao, the shipping company CEO and sister-in-law of outgoing Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, was intoxicated when she drove her Tesla into a lake at a Texas ranch in a fatal crash last month, according to the Blanco County Sheriff’s Office.
That's right CEOs please get behind the wheel drunk and back your Tesla into a retaining pond.
my first thought when I originally read the story was that she was probably hammered. "out with friends" or whatever--- intended to humanize her but we all know what that means.
the other thing I don't understand is why there was apparently a pond next to a driveway or something. hindsight's 20/20 but shouldn't you put some kind of barrier between the driving area and the water?
With the quick acceleration of those things, idk if an aesthetically pleasing barrier would’ve made any difference. She probably did an “unintended acceleration” i.e. brake misapplication

She was hammered, pond mightve been at a safe distance.
