    If Elon hears about this I’m guessing FARS will be declared to be wasteful government spending in the next few months

    How much of that is driven by them having no large vehicles in their lineup I wonder.

    I’m no Elon fan, but smaller cars lose in accidents and Tesla only makes smaller cars.

      Calling Teslas small cars has to be one of the most American comment I’ve ever read. In Europe, they often stick out of parking spots cause they are bigger than the average car.

        It’s definitely a relative statement. They are smaller than quite a bit of what they will meet on the road, and other manufacturers here have trucks and full size suvs in their lineup which would impact their fatality stats in a way that Tesla does not similarly benefit from.
