strange bad looking crash on EB I-10 mp 315.5

a passenger vehicle totally crushed smashed into the back of a highway patrol vehicle which is then smashed into an ambulance. doubt driver of passenger vehicle survived that. all I can find is a tweet about road conditions




we drove past it but my camera failed and it wasn't very visible from a dirt road that goes by there

the really odd thing is the mess is in the left/inside lane.

UPDATE: We can confirm the driver indicated to troopers the Tesla was on autopilot at the time of the collision. Additionally, the driver, a 23-year-old male from Irvine, CA, is being investigated for DUI. He remains in the hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
