What's stops someone from simply changing the tire? This seems like a bad design for a boot.

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 10 points 7 months ago (1 children)

You could. But they still know who owns the car. They also charge you for the cost of the boot.

[–] Bonehead@kbin.social 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Bring the tire with you when you pay the fine so they can take the boot off. All this does is create an inconvenience instead of immobilizing the vehicle.

"oh no, they're paying their fines which is what we wanted them to do"

Most cars don't come with a spare these days. That's all

Isn't changing a tire on any of the Teslas a bit of a challenge because of the weight? Do they come with heavy duty jacks? I wonder if the Cybertruck even comes with a spare at all.
