Elon Musk responds to Tesla Cybertruck crash into Beverly Hills Hotel sign

Video captured the aftermath of a Tesla Cybertruck driver who crashed into the iconic Beverly Hills Hotel sign Sunday.  

The incident happened just before midnight on Mar. 3. The famous hotel is at the intersection of Sunset Boulevard and North Beverly Drive.  

The nearly 7,000-pound stainless steel vehicle hopped the curb and came to a stop with its two front wheels on top of a concrete landscaping wall. The truck sustained significant damage to its front left wheel, as well as damaging the poles that hold the sign.  

On X, formerly Twitter, Elon Musk, who owns the social media platform, responded to the crash.  

“Cyberbeast is faster than a Porsche 911, but looks like a truck, so perhaps the valet wasn’t expecting so much acceleration,” he said.

Initial reports about the crash claimed the Tesla was being driven by a hotel valet, but that later turned out to be untrue.  

Just hours before that crash, two men barely escaped with their lives after a Tesla that they were driving went off an overpass on the 134 Freeway in the Griffith Park neighborhood and burst into flames.

The crash was reported just before 11 p.m. when the car drove through a barrier on the Riverside Drive overpass and landed on the center divider of the freeway below, the Los Angeles Fire Department stated in a news alert. 

Two men, aged 65 and 60 managed to exit the vehicle, which eventually burst into flames. 

The unidentified men were taken to a local hospital in serious but stable condition, the Fire Department stated. 

It is unclear if anyone in the Cybertruck that struck the Beverly Hills Hotel was injured.
