Tesla driver killed after plowing into firetruck on freeway

"At least 14 Teslas have crashed into emergency vehicles while using the system."

Two factors that come into play there.

1. Tesla owners with 'Full Self Drive' option are treating it as an 'autopilot'. In other words FSD is essentially level 2 autonomy but drivers are behaving as if it is level 4.
   
2. Any motor vehicle accident/fire involving a Tesla becomes a lead story due to its click bait potential to the EV haters out there. I've also seen news stories describing images or video as being Teslas when the subject is clearly another car make or even a truck with exploding LPG bottles in one case.
   

The incidents of vehicle fires is far more common for ICE vehicles than for EVs in terms of total kms travelled but you'll seldom see a Chev, Ford, VW, BMW, etc ICE making headlines as their fuel and interior incinerate.
