I hope everyone can now stop with all the it has no crumple zone so it's a death trap comments.

I guess that means doubling down on the pedestrian death machine now.

Full report is available from the website

Edit: Also the report is dated January 14th. This is before Trump.

I'd like to see crash test results from an organization outside of Musk's influence before believing any of their conclusions.

The report is dated January 14th if you cared to check.

That's before Trump was president.

Before he took office but after he was elected... *and yes, I did notice the date.

So the same NHSTA that was still willing to initiate investigations into it, such as this

https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/us-traffic-safety-regulator-opens-probe-into-about-26-mln-tesla-vehicles-2025-01-07/

Is going to be publishing false information due to his influence before he had taken office.

You gotta stop with the conspiracy stuff, you'll end up just as bad as MAGA.

If you believe a billionaire taking over the US government won't do everything they can to squash investigations or criticism of the company that made them a billionaire, I have a bridge to sell you.

As long as those bridge plans were finalized and all signed off on by the proper authority before January 20th, I'll take that bridge!
