- YZF 2y agoAren't all trucks? Wouldn't the sensor suite and auto-braking make it maybe somewhat safer? Is this something that gets tested for by car manufacturers?
- gibolt 2y agoAlso, the hood + "grill" is significantly lower. A pedestrian would bounce (although uncomfortably) instead of hit by a wall and run over like most other trucks / SUVs.

- Tepix 2y agoIn Europe for one that are regulations that make sure that cars are as safe for pedestrians as possible.
- elmerfud 2y agoNo more a death machine than a Cadillac Escalade or a Dodge ram truck. There's lots of criticisms you can make about the cybertruck that are exclusive to the cybertruck but this isn't one. This complaint is about bad drivers. The rise of all the driver assist technology is enabling bad drivers to believe that they are better than they are. This is across vehicle brands.
- nahwut 2y agoThe existence of other death machines that should not be legal does not undermine the parent's point that this death machine should be illegal. I don't think they said only the cyber truck should be illegal.
- elmerfud 2y agoYou're trying to say the machine itself is the problem, when it's not the machine it's the operator. You're trying to shift blame here.
- yyuugg 2y agoThe machine itself and the operator are a problem. It is an unnecessarily dangerous machine and the operators do not operate them safely.
