Tesla drivers seem to drive like idiots around the OC.

whoa there, most of us who have driven have gotten away with stupid driving at some point. this may have just been a case of bad driving at the wrong time in the wrong place. i wouldn't generalize about tesla drivers in the OC based on this event. i'm all for tesla bashing, but for every tesla crash, you will find an equally idiotic m5 crash.

that said, the model s is rear wheel drive, with 100% torque at 0 RPM. slam on the accelerator, you will get wheel spin and fishtailing. do it too long, you're in the other lane, and this can happen. you do have to wonder about the lack of combustion noise as feedback contributing to a slower response to loss of control.

I hope you were trying to prove a point that M5 doesn't catch on fire, unlike Tesla.
