    Its not about EV vs ICE its about having a dumbass design the car

    The manual overrides are hidden away so anyone who hasn’t trained on using them is dead meat. also you probably just got a concussion from crashing your car, so they’re probably useless

    Shattering windows are a safety feature that were removed for what reason exactly?

    The transportation secretaries sister died because of these super predictable issues with teslas

    I love the idea of electric vehicles but that doesn’t mean an idiot should design them

      OK, on the designed by an idiot, or in this case concepted and OK’d by an idiot, and the rest of the engineering and work of making that work was actually left up to good engineers, we both can agree on.

        The problem is that the engineers are not in control, and if they say one of the bosses ideas is bad they get fired.
