Ouch……Anyone here admitting to doing this? No further info on Reddit…..

Update: additional info from OP:

“he was going so fast that he launched over the curb into the house. thats why the rocks on the bottom are untouched. also ill add that he floored it literally right before a sharp turn on a 25mph street. we live 4 blocks from a highway with no traffic.”

Unlikely the person who did it comes forward publicly. Hopefully nobody was hurt.

Sorry guys - I was trying to lick the 120v outlet below the 2nd row display based on @Riviot ‘s recommendation. Probably should have parked first.

For a minute I thought that the DOT ID (or whatever) on that flatbed started with “TLDR”.

Hi all, Google search on "Rivian crashes into house in Austin" yields nothing particularly like this photo.

It does yield a KXAN video, posted a month ago, of a black or dark grey SUV, shaped IMO more like a Suburban than an R1S, just before it crashed into an off-camera South Austin house.

My hypothesis is that we're all looking at fictional clickbait. Not that it couldn't have happened, but I can't find any evidence that it actually did happen.

Best to all!

This pic is from months ago when a celebrity crashed his R1S.
