Driver sacrifices his Tesla to save another man's life

While driving his Tesla Model S on Germany's famous speed limit free Autobahn on Monday evening, 41-year-old Manfred Kick watched another car fly all over the highway and repeatedly bounce off the guardrail. 

While driving his Tesla Model S on Germany's famous speed limit free Autobahn on Monday evening, 41-year-old Manfred Kick watched another car fly all over the highway and repeatedly bounce off the guardrail. 

Once both cars came to a halt, Kick climbed into the unconscious man's car and performed CPR while others called emergency services. When first responders arrived, they evaluated that the man appeared to have suffered a stroke while driving. They transferred him to a local hospital where he is currently in stable condition. 

Total damages for both cars after the incident were in excess of 10,000 Euros, but Kick won't be paying a dime to repair his Tesla, as news of his heroism made its way to Elon Musk's feed. 

The man also had to do something that Germans are told they're never supposed to do: pass in the right lane. There's pretty strict etiquette when it comes to driving in Germany, and drivers are told to only pass in the left left lane. Though we'll assume his fellow Germans will let him off this time.  

The word "hero" is thrown around pretty casually these days, but this is an example of someone who actually is one, even if he doesn't think so himself. 

Unsurprisingly, Twitter users were pretty impressed. Both by the driver and Elon Musk's offer to pay for the damages.  

Would you do this?
