The California Highway Patrol says emergency responders weren't prepared for a battery fire of this scale
Interstate 80 through the Sierra Nevada Mountains in California has been shut down after an electric Tesla Semi left the road in the early hours of the morning. The truck’s immense battery pack and the crash site’s remoteness have made the fire difficult to fight, forcing California authorities to keep the arterial highway closed with no estimated reopening time.
According to a KCRA 3 newscast, the Tesla was traversing the Sierra Madre through Placer County when it left the road near Nyack, CA in unknown conditions around 3:13 a.m. It’s unclear why the truck seemingly lost control; conventional diesel semis rely on engine braking to prevent their brakes from overheating on steep mountain roads. The highly technological Tesla may have suffered any variety of mechanical or electrical problems, or even mere driver error. In any case, the resulting fire poses an unprecedented problem for emergency responders.
The truck is operated by professional drivers therefore its more likely that the truck suffered an electrical issues than driver caused. Just wait until a Semi goes out of control in the city like Tesla cars have! Russia or China hackers will probably be blamed when that happens the way they were insinuated for Chao's Tesla going out of control
They currently plan to let the batteries burn themselves out, however long that may take—it could be days. Containing the battery fire‘s spread has also been complicated by the site’s less-developed nature, as the lack of nearby hydrants has forced firefighters to bring in a portable reservoir that is being refilled by tanker trucks.
Firefighters too have had to rotate on and off the scene, as the smoke coming from the wreckage was described by a California Highway Patrol official on the broadcast as “toxic.” They have to wear full breathing apparatuses complete with O2 tanks to safely do their jobs, which is also why CalTrans and the CHP have established a half-mile perimeter to keep the public safe. That means that the surrounding stretch of I-80 will remain closed until further notice, which has led to westbound traffic being diverted as far away as the Nevada state line.

Section 2 - The computer errors from outer space
(Elon Musk: Model S not a car but a ‘sophisticated computer on wheels’)
When computers go wrong, we tend to assume it's just some software hiccup, a bit of bad programming. But ionising radiation, including rays of protons blasted towards us by the sun, can also be the cause. These incidents, called single-event upsets, are rare and it can be impossible to be sure that cosmic rays were involved in a specific malfunction because they leave no trace behind them.
And yet they have been singled out as the possible culprits behind numerous extraordinary cases of computer failure. From a vote-counting machine that added thousands of non-existent votes to a candidate's tally, to a commercial airliner that suddenly dropped hundreds of feet mid-flight, injuring dozens of passengers
Plus, since giant ejections from the sun can sometimes send huge waves of particles towards Earth, what's called space weather, an unnerving prospect looms: we could see much more disruption to computers than we're used to during a massive geomagnetic storm in the future

Section 3 - Superseding and/or Intervening Force
Tesla argues it had no control in the crash and death which were "caused by a superseding and/or intervening force."
There you have it folks Tesla admits an outside force caused this Tesla to glitch and go out of control. That is true, its not Teslas fault, per se, that its vehicles go out of control. Its the destabilized electromagnetic environment we are experiencing as a result of the earths continued weakening of its magnetic field. While I do not disagree that this is an outside force causing its vehicles to go out of control, its precisely why computers on wheels (Teslas/EVs/computerized ICE) should not be on the roads. Because these vehicles will continue to go out of control and with more frequency putting the greater public in danger. EVs will continue to destroy lives whether through killing those involved, created long-term psychological damage, or leading to the incarceration of people who did nothing wrong other than drive an EV.
Also as Tesla is aware of the problem and does not warn the public its liable for everyone of its vehicles going out of control!

Tesla led all automakers with 23.54 crashes per 1,000 drivers in the past year.

Section 5 -Tesla suffers SUA and drives into a parking garage wall.
I'm begging all of you to NEVER get in a Tesla as long as you live. It started accelerating on its own in a parking garage and my dad lost all control of the car and we ran into a wall at 40 mph. Most horrifying experience of my life.

Section 8 - Hutchison Effect & Teslas Whompy Wheel issue
Jain is one of tens of thousands of Tesla owners who have experienced premature failures of suspension or steering parts, according to a Reuters review of thousands of Tesla documents. The chronic failures, many in relatively new vehicles, date back at least seven years and stretch across Tesla’s model lineup and across the globe, from China to the United States to Europe, according to the records and interviews with more than 20 customers and nine former Tesla managers or service technicians.
https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/tesla-musk-steering-suspension/
The exact cause of the Hutchison Effect is unknown in public spheres as it is classified under national security. However the most likely culprit seems to be a combination of electromagnetic sources coming together in a way to change the makeup of metals leading to their rusting, softening, fracturing, complete breaking, even dustification. Keep in mind the degree of metal materials that are within our buildings and infrastructure...even in concrete. Maybe this is why we are seeing an increase in building and bridge collapses?

Could it be that there is a strategy to distract people away from looking at the basic data?
Is all this an exercise to create more and more forum verbiage to drown out any serious discussion of evidence?
