I have seen a lot of tesla vandalism online the last few days and I’m kind of on the fence about it.
I’ve seen several examples locally here in BC, Canada.
I think totally warranted at newly purchased teslas going forward. Also it serves as a deterrent for potential future buyers.
But vandalizing a car that is a few years old I think is lame. Those driversare already being punished enough by driving something around that’s worth less than scrap.
a long time ago, in Berlin districts to reduce gentrification they used to scope out the expensive cars and then gentry lay a lit barbeque firelighter under the wheel.
That’s the legend. In reality they burned down the old van of a friend of mine because he had a Polish license plate.
Yes. It was a Neonazi from Britz doing it. He primarily targeted foreign cars, vehicles of local left politicians (Die Linke and SPD candidates of Neukölln both had their cars burned). He also lit up a few expensive cars, but that might have been because he ran out of “legitimate” targets.
and it turned out to be too little…
Why would the gentry harm expensive cars? Those would be their own cars.
