But this is fake news. Picking scary anecdotes to make Teslas seem more dangerous than they really are. They are pretty safe, look at the statistics (sorry, I'm from Germany).
Again: Fuck Elon Musk! His cars are expensive, high-tech, next level but as safe as any other vehicle. I personally will never ever buy one. But that's no reason to act like screaming pitchfork idiots in here.
