Glad everyone will be OK.
While working a freeway accident this morning, Engine 42 was struck by a #Tesla traveling at 65 mph. The driver reports the vehicle was on autopilot. Amazingly there were no injuries! Please stay alert while driving!

There is no way that car struck the fire engine at 65mph. There would be nothing left. Looks more like 15mph.
-
maybe the truck was also moving forward when struck thereby reducing the force of the impact?

Firetruck recognition will probably be part of a future software update. Stay tuned...

Agreed. Big red fire trucks so easy to miss. Especially when they have all their lights on. Need something in software to specifically deal with this kind of disguised road furniture

I wonder if this would have event warranted a tweet if it was not a Tesla.....judging from their stream I doubt it.....

Correct. This happens all the time, and even with cars that are NOT Tesla, but do have AEB.
