The first Tesla Cybertruck fatality.

A sad inevitability: a Cybertruck driver died in Texas early Monday morning after their truck left the roadway for an unknown reason and smashed into a concrete culvert, the local news station reports. The Cybertruck became engulfed in flames after the crash, complicating the victim’s identification. Tesla has sold at least 11,000 Cybertrucks since the vehicle’s release late last year, according to a recent recall report.

Tesla’s other vehicles have stellar safety ratings, but third party groups have yet to rate the Cybertruck, which has been hit with multiple recalls.
