The Southern California doctor accused of trying to kill his family in January by driving his Tesla off a cliff at Devil’s Slide in San Mateo County blamed the crash on tire problems, court documents revealed.
Radiologist Dharmesh Patel, 41, of Pasadena, told investigators that he had experienced tire troubles on his 2021 Tesla Model Y that caused the crash on Jan. 2, according to documents from San Mateo County Superior Court.
Patel said he was traveling from Belmont to Montara and had to stop at three gas stations along the way to put air in his left rear tire. He said the Tesla's sensor light signaled that there was low pressure in the tire.A family of four is recovering after their Tesla went over a cliff near Devil's Slide Monday morning, according to Cal Fire.
"He drove off. He's depressed. He's a doctor. He said he was going to drive off the cliff. He purposely drove off," the woman allegedly told an officer as she was being airlifted to Stanford Hospital.
