That statement is entirely factual though.
Musk has continually promoted the car as being bulletproof.
And we know from regulators and crash tests that it's going to be a nightmare for pedestrians. To the level where in many countries it is likely to not be street-legal. Factor in the sports-car level acceleration and it is going to be an unprecedentedly dangerous car.
- huijzer 3y agoIf I have to choose between a "comfortable" car to be hit by without active safety features and an uncomfortable car that has active safety features, then I rather choose the latter. In other words, rather a car that is driven by a human and might break from itself than a "comfortable" car driven by only a human.
- verve_rat 3y agoThat's a total false dichotomy though. No new consumer vehicles in that price range lack active safety features like automatic breaking. The cybertruck is just unnecessary in its disregard for other people.

- pa7ch 3y agoWe don't know that. I think its likely safer to pedestrians then an F150 because the hood is significantly lower. The steel ia irrelevant, trucks don't crumple already for pedestrians, they crumple for other cars.
