On Monday morning, a Tesla vehicle carrying two adults and two children plunged off a cliff in San Mateo County, California. The car was traveling southbound on the Pacific Coast Highway when it went over the cliff at Devil’s Slide, south of the Tom Lantos tunnel, and landed near the water’s edge below. The fall was a distance of 250 feet.

According to the Cal Fire San Mateo-Santa Cruz Unit, the car flipped and landed on its wheels during the fall. Witnesses of the accident called 911, alerting first responders to the scene. When crews arrived, they were able to see movement in the front seat of the car through their binoculars, indicating that there were survivors inside.

Fire officials called for helicopters to assist in the rescue operation, while firefighters rappelled down to the scene and were able to rescue the two children. The California Highway Patrol shared video on social media showing helicopters lowering first responders to the scene in order to extricate and rescue the two adults.

All four survivors were taken to the hospital for treatment. The San Mateo Sheriff’s Office reported that the two adults suffered non-life-threatening injuries, while the two children were unharmed.

The cause of the accident is currently under investigation by the California Highway Patrol. It is not yet clear what caused the car to go over the cliff. The rescue operation was a challenging one, but fortunately, all four people inside the car were able to survive the fall and receive medical attention.
