- tetris11 2y agoThankfully steer-by-wire has been crash tested by the aviation industry...
- MissTake 2y agoThe aviation industry is also chock full of mandatory servicing requirements[1] that even lead to semi strip downs at regular intervals. However, once purchased, one is legally allowed to drive a CyberTruck no matter how old or how many issues there are (being licensed and insured etc. aside).

- MissTake 2y agoPossibly. Possibly not. I’m no expert so I couldn’t even begin to speculate. I’m just making a statement on the regulation requirements comparison between the auto and aviation industries really.

- daghamm 2y agoI believe almost all modern vehicles are like that. (drive by wire, not crashing all the time)
- gizmo 2y agoThe cybertruck doesn't just have drive-by-wire it has steer-by-wire. That's really unusual for cars.
- Vecr 2y agoAbsolutely not, the other current effort is on a few Lexus systems, I don't know its current status. Accelerate by wire, but drive by wire.
- IsTom 2y agoNot sure it's still like that, but for a very long time EU required that there is a mechanical linkage between steering wheel and actual steering.
