I mean, I guess "impeccable safety record" is in the eye of the beholder?

They jinxed it or was it cursed from the beginning?

Before the teslas came out everyone was shitting on how stupid elon musk was for insisting he didnt use lidar, despite how glaringly obvious it was it wouldnt work.

What's even more amazing is 10 years ago or how ever long it was we where "2 years" away from full self driving. To this day there is no full self driving from Tesla, yet we are still some how 2 years away.

Everything elon musk says is a lie to inflate his ego and his stocks. From the Tesla tunnel, to solar roofing, etc, etc.
