"You oppose crash reporting legislation"

"I oppose crash reporting legislation"

You don't need Jedi powers when you have more money than many nations.

Tesla believes it is better at reporting crash data than its competitors, and so the discrepancy in numbers makes them look bad.

It's almost as though leaving safety and associated reporting requirements in the hands of private business doesn't work out for consumers. If only there was some public institution that would hold all vehicle manufacturers accountable and enforce reporting requirements. I cannot possibly imagine how that would work though. /s

That's the last sign you see before your Tesla choses to drive you into a pillar, a truck or whatever else.

I wonder how quickly the safety of new US cars will plummet

[–] Saljid 7 points 3 days ago

And their international sales

How clearly can Musk telegraph that if you want safety, you shouldn't drive a Tesla? More evidence that he is a genius CEO.

I've seen the video of an orangutan driving a golf cart.

I've seen that the orange man likes playing golf.

Question: Can the orange man even drive a car? 🤔

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

Chances are he can't, growing up in New York and having been chauffeured his whole life.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

That savage is known for driving his golf carts over the greens. That alone shows how mentally unfit he is to be responsible for anything. That being said, I've never seen him drive an actual car, so I have no idea.

Interesting, makes sense though. I wonder if he ever drove anything bigger than a golf cart before he was ever president?

So what's he gonna do with that Cybertruck now? Go sit in the back and suck Elon off?

[–] Brkdncr 1 points 4 days ago

Why? Seems like wasted energy.
