The incident took place in South Vancouver near the Marpole neighbourhood.
One Instagram user asked, “How the hell does this happen?”
Some people presumed that the Tesla may have been stolen. The tow truck driver responded, “Nah, just your typical Vancouver driver.”
One person lamented, “Why are Vancouver drivers like this?”
We wish we knew.
Another user said, “Had to be a Tesla.”
In response to onjay91’s work, many commended his moves to get the Tesla off the Vancouver train tracks.
“Keeping the Tesla’s tires on the track was super impressive,” someone said.
The tow truck driver responded, “The video makes it look easy. The reality was teeth clenching, but I made the whole distance back with the wheels on the track.”
We’ve contacted Buster’s Towing to see if they’ve learned any more about how this happened. What we do know is that the car is currently impounded.
