This is the shocking moment a Tesla zooming at 128mph in Florida runs a red light and violently crashes into an SUV, nearly slicing it in half.

He had a green light and was attempting to make a U-Turn when the Tesla quick as lightening appeared and crashed head-on into his car on October 21, 2018 just after 1am.

Holness had to be hospitalized for nearly four weeks and suffered traumatic brain injuries, brain bleeding, and fractures to his spine and ribs.
'I am alive and God was with me. I can’t believe it. I don’t remember what happened. I don’t remember the car flipping over. When I look at it right now I can’t believe it,' Holness said incredulously as CBS Miami showed him video of the vicious collision.
Holness, a father to two young children, is still recuperating from his serious injuries but says every day is a challenge.
