    You don’t hear about it? I constantly hear about people dying in Teslas. And the car is a joke for years now, it can’t become a joke any harder.

      You hear about them because every fatal crash is reported, every fire is reported. You don’t hear about the same things for other brands. A kid killed himself near my place driving his father’s V8 car, it didn’t even make the local news because teenage boys killing themselves in cars by driving recklessly is hardly rare.

        I’m aware. Teslas are probably safer than the average old car you have on the roads. But you hear about them a lot more.

      Hmm why statistics are against it? I hate Elon, but statistically Tesla is 2x safer than average car. Proof me wrong
