I really hope the passenger or passengers are OK. Being stuck in a burning car has to be one of the worst ways to go.
This is why it's so sick that Musk puts profits over safety. Elon Musk doesn't care about the people who burn alive in his cars. If you drive a Tesla this could one day be your fate and you may not be able to escape. Teslas are designed to shut off power in a car accident yet they also use electric door handles. See the issue with that? They do have an emergency escape option but in an accident with all the adrenaline and emotion it may be hard to find them or use them. Certain Tesla models do not have an emergency escape option in the back. Please do not have passengers especially children in the back if your Tesla doesn't have an emergency escape.
If for some reason you own a Tesla: please for your own safety regularly practice exiting the vehicle using the emergency escape. I do not want this to happen to you or anybody. Also I know a car is a very major purchase but if it's well within your means or something you could afford without a big impact on your finances you may want to consider getting another car when you can.
