What could be simpler after getting into a crash?
And there is no reason to talk about how people burn to death in Tesla's at ~4x the per-mile rate of the average car. I mean, Tesla releases intentionally deceptive statistics on their website [1] to convince you that you have ~8x the probability of getting into a fire in a non-Tesla and just intentionally not informing customers about the part where those fires are ~32x more likely to kill you. And that 4x excess fire death rate only results in like 4x as many excess fire deaths per year as the Ford Pinto; so really what is the harm?

- Veserv 1y agoHere is one of my posts on reddit with citations for 2022, the most recent year with ground truth NHTSA data as of that post: https://old.reddit.com/r/RealTesla/comments/1h6fzvr/tesla_bursts_into_flames_after_crashing_in_posh/m0lb1r6/ https://old.reddit.com/r/RealTesla/comments/1h6fzvr/tesla_bu... For the Cybertruck in particular you can see my post about their fatal fire rates from 8 months ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43039925 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43039925 Tesla Cybertruck has ~40x the vehicle-year normalized fire fatality rate of the average car and was responsible for excess annual fire deaths on the order of the excess annual fire deaths of the Ford Pinto.
