A Tesla Semi rear-ended two passenger vehicles in Nevada on Sunday, killing two people and leaving another with life-threatening injuries, in what appears to be the first known fatal crash involving the fully electric truck. Early information gathered by the sheriff’s office at the scene suggests the driver may have fallen asleep, though the official cause has yet to be determined.
 
The incident happened Sunday morning on US 50 in Dayton, Nevada. Two vehicles, one of them a classic VW Beetle, had reportedly stopped at a red light when the Tesla plowed into them from behind.
