OK, its just a deer, but the future is clear. These things are going to start kill people left and right.

How many kids is Elon going to kill before we shut him down? Whats the number of children we're going to allow Elon to murder every year?

Bravo, you're the first person to bring actual fucking statistics to the discussion! Per driven miles would be better than per driver but hey, at least it's not just a clickbait article.

    per driven miles would almost definitely be worse for tesla.

    That's an assumption I wouldn't be ready to make, but maybe.

    are you saying you expect an average tesla to have more mileage than regular cars?

    because fuel stations are everywhere while tesla uses proprietary charging ports that aren't compatible with other chargers.

    forgive me but I'm not gonna take tesla's own words about their mileage at face value.

    One costs a lot more to drive than the other though and the gas station vs charging station argument only matters if you travel more than the range of your car, with their models letting you drive pretty far and back without charging, it's not hard to go over the annual average without ever needing to charge somewhere that isn't home. Hell, any EV that does 100 miles on a charge can easily beat it without relying on charging stations as the average is 33 minutes a day!
