Arizona Woman Assaulted in Tesla Incident, Reflects Backlash Against Owners

News summary

A 61-year-old woman in Arizona, identified as Susan, was assaulted while driving her Tesla on Route 66 in Flagstaff when another driver boxed her in and began hitting her. The incident, which was captured on the vehicle's security cameras, has raised concerns about a growing trend of violence against Tesla drivers, believed to stem from backlash against the company's owner, Elon Musk. Following the attack, which occurred on March 18, the assailant was cited and is scheduled to appear in court. Susan expressed her frustration, stating that she purchased her Tesla for enjoyment, not as a political statement, and highlighted her shame over the societal issues leading to such violence.

Musk has indicated a desire for investigations into these attacks to be conducted.
