Now that we know the driver did it intentionally and the safety of the car kept them alive, it's interesting that the brand of car isn't making it into headlines anymore.
Probably immediately followed up with divorce papers >

Seems reasonable after attempted murder. >

Really? I think he deserves a second chance
edit: /s >

Your comment reminded me of those relationship posts where the OP is like “my guy is so amazing expect for this teeny tiny thing,” where the “one thing” ends up being a fondness for cruel and/or illegal things. >

Or when the 'one thing' was addressed, but it turns out there where actually a lot of other things the 'tiny thing' was blocking. >

Radiologist, living in a fancy suburb and driving a Tesla, two young kids, neighbors say they were a "beautiful, idyllic family, no indication of issues", wife apparently had no clue as well...and then he randomly decides to drive his family off a cliff. You can never really know WTF is going on in a person's head. Hope everyone (especially the kids) can get all the help they need to recover and move on. >

Medicine is a high stress job and environment, suicide and mental health issues are higher than national averages. The money is great but the mental price tends to be high. Not justifying anything but I guess I’d more more surprised if a construction worker or something did it. >

Construction workers actually have massively outsized rates of suicide, way higher than most jobs. Their harsh and unsupportive work culture leads to a lot of repressed mental health issues.
I do understand the point you’re getting at though >

I picked a blue collar job since most feel more fulfilled than white collar but of course I chose poorly >

You aren’t supposed to listen to the call of the void. 
Thankfully the family is okay. >

We've all had intrusive thoughts. Most come to their senses before actually going through with them. >

This doesn't sound like intrusive thoughts. This sounds like psychopathy. >


Two of the three counts against Patel come with domestic violence and great bodily injury enhancements, San Mateo County District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said during a news conference Monday.
...
“Miraculously though, the four-year-old came out with just some bruises, and that does not qualify for significant bodily injury,”

Good for the kid and somehow also the would-be family killer. >

Also nevermind the Tesla that managed to fall off a cliff, not explode, and not get anyone killed, whoever made that kid's carseat needs to be pushing this for the rest of the year. >

That's a tough row to hoe. 
On the one hand you can point to that incident for the car seat effectiveness. On the other, it's shown that your car seat was picked out by a would-be family killer. >

Huh? Nobody should blame a car seat manufacturer because a psychopath chose to buy it once.
Nobody’s like “don’t buy Cheerios, Jeffrey Dahmer loved them!” >

I’m never buying cheerios again. >

Dahmer was a candy man, you should be okay. >

Boy, that is crazy they survived that. Awkward for the father. I wonder what went through his mind when he realized everyone, including himself, were still alive? >

He's going to have a lot of free time to think about it. >

One of my first childhood memories is my dad yelling at my mom in the car and threatening to kill us all as we drove to the kindergarten orientation for my older sister. >

What the hell? I hope you got away from that ass?!? >

My parents divorced 10 years later. I’m an old man now so he’s probably dead by now.
Also thank you to everyone that sympathized. It’s not something I think about, but this article reminded me of it. >

Picks car with highest safety rating

When this first story came out I imagined new elements forged from the heat and intense pressure inside this guy’s chest realizing OH NO WE LIVED and knowing how screwed he was. Like Ohshitnium
