Joking aside, assuming the Tesla wasn't a cut and shut, and that the speed involved was less than a million mph, that level of damage is scary and if not be happy putting my kids in thr back row!
Seriously? A 30 second scan of that link makes it clear the Nissan GT-R (hardly a "Datsun"...) "flew" through the lights, its driver was hospitalised, and the Tesla occupants were unharmed, unsurprisingly.
