Transporting a minor in a Tesla is child endangerment.
Any time I call an Uber and get a Tesla I automatically deduct a point. I hate being in those things.
I think the only rational thing to do, is ban AI from cars.
Also, ban Tesla from roads.
Just ban fucking AI, it clearly does way more harm than good.
Every tesla is A death trap. Stop buying that shit.
the door handles stopped working, what a stupid feature and nightmare
makes me wonder, couldn't someone or something remotely hack a car to kill its passengers?
you can open the doors without the power handles. Keep in mind this is version from a lawyer, the same people who fabricated "unintended acceleration" claims.
Sure you can—but you have to take the door panel off first. Because Tesla is shit.
Here, the fine manual: https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/model3/en_us/GUID-A7A60DC7-E476-4A86-9C9C-10F4A276AB8B.html
It would be nice if we could stick to the facts instead of making wild assertions.
For the Model 3, the front seats have a pull handle by the window control that will open the door even without power. This is in an obvious and intuitive location, and should be known to any owner who has spent a few minutes reading the manual and studying the capabilities of their vehicle. The rear seats do not have an exposed pull handle, but there is an emergency release under the door pocket liner.
Complete guides to all Tesla manual door release controls exist and are available.
The only model where the emergency release is hidden behind a door panel is the Model X, where the rear seats hide the emergency release cable behind a speaker grille.
There are perfectly fair and valid criticisms to level at Tesla, but when people repeat uninformed FUD instead of sticking to the facts it makes it easy to write off their opinions are worthless.
It would be very fair and reasonable to question or criticise:
But saying “you have to take the door panel off first”? Incorrect and uninformed, sorry.
No. There is an emergency release handle that is mechanical. Passengers tend to find that instead of the normal button.
You mean the one inside the speaker? Or under the carpet? Or simply nonexistent in some models? Fuck the people especially in the back seat I guess
All 4 doors on my car have a manual emergency release on the door handle.
And my car has normal fucking door handles.
I'm just correcting your assertion that they have emergency release under the carpet or in the door panel. I am not making any judgement about the door handles.
Are we talking about the inside or outside? How can the emergency services open the door of a crashed car if there is no handle?
I'm specifically talking about the release so occupants can get themselves out.
To be fair, it did drive itself.
I've heard of "father-son bonding", but this is ridiculous!
So do all teslas come with bullet resistant glass? Would a regular glass breaker work? What about the cattle killer from no country for old men? That seems like it would be the best tool for first responders.
But how many trees would the median driver have soberly slammed into with their son on average!?! Huh?!? Huh?!?!
/s (In case you need it)
Nice, we got a bull and a veal!

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
