The primary reason reason why Phaethon was led to his destruction is that he was a liar. When he lied, it told a lot about him. He specifically said “He taught me the reigns” and “how to make them go and how to stop”, showing that he is not honest about him driving the sun chariot. He even lied about meeting his father saying “Certainly, very often”. That piece of evidence indicates that he met his father which he has not done. Phaethon is digging a deeper hole for himself. If he told the truth he would not be in the position that he is in.

The character traits of Phaethon drive the story to its tragic conclusion. In the passage “Phaethon” it says, “‘I do, I do!’ cried Phaethon. ‘Stand away, sire! The dawn grows old and day must begin! Go, horses, go!’” This shows, that Phaethon is eager trying to drive the sun chariot so he does not listen to his father's instructions. In the passage “Phaethon” it says, “I must show him that it is I driving the chariot of the sun—I alone. Apollo said not to come too close to earth, but how will he know?” This explains, how Phaethon is selfish because he chooses glory over the lives of the innocent and he doesn't even get the glory. In the passage “Phaethon” it says, “‘I’ll go to the palace of the sun right now and hold my father to his promise.

Ovid retells the classic myth of Phaethon’s fateful journey in the end of the first book and the beginning of the second book of his Metamorphoses. The original narrative of Phaethon must have been written by someone who had more than a little knowledge of the science of astronomy, according to Henry V. Gummere and John F. Gummere. They observe that Ovid “in writing the story of Phaethon, thought that he was describing the daily journey of the sun.” However, Paethon’s journey takes him through the signs of the zodiac over a period of about six months. The story of Phaethon that is told in Bulfinch’s Greek and Roman Mythology is derived from Ovid, and many modern poets, including John Milton in his Paradise Lost, allude to the catastrophe of
