Tesla Self Drives Into Levittown Dunkin Donuts
by Alex Lloyd Gross
Police in Middletown Twp., Bucks County said that a “self driving issue” was being looked at as the cause for a single accident on the 900 block of South Woodbourne Road. A Tesla operated by a New Jersey resident plowed into the side of a Dunkin Donuts, at the corner of Trenton and Woodbourne Road.
Two employees sustained injuries from the incident, that resulted in structural damage to the building. Brick facing was cracked and township building inspectors were called to determine if the building is structurally sound.
This store is going to be closed for a while, police said they had no idea of when it will re open. The driver of the car was not hurt. Airbags deployed inside all areas of the car.
This crash happened just before 9:30 AM. Originally, fire officials feared the car could catch fire and that fire could extend into the building. Extra equipment was dispatched to the scene but recalled after the car was secured and there was no fire.
