Low poly disaster.

Well that is by design, crumple zones for energy displacement. But I do love seeing them totaled.

this, and also the swastitruck poorly executes them, it actually doesnt crumple as it should and that makes it that much more unsafe. IIRC it doesnt pass any collision safety standard.

probably get sliced in half by the cybertruck parts flying at you.

Interesting hypothesis based on this case study. I propose we test it with a sample size of a few thousand.

I mean yeah. I hate nazi mobiles like every one but it would be an issue if it didn't do that on impact.

That said when they were first announced and talking about using SpaceX spaceship steel it sounded like it wouldn't have crumple zones.

I don't think you can pass the federal safety standard without them honestly. Not that Musk cares about the law or anything though...

Well he was driving one around without side mirrors... Looking it up apparently dealers are required to in the US, but some places at least may allow no side mirrors if a customer removes them? I can't believe all states would allow that.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

That was never going to happen.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

On the other hand perhaps that issue would address other issues.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 days ago

It really doesn't, and that's a problem. It has like 2 feet of crumple zone in the front so anything head on above 40mph is going to snap your friggin neck.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 3 days ago

All modern cars crumple and that's a good thing.

Wait, aren't windshields supposed to be either tempered or laminated? How in the hell is a huge shard able to be broken off like that?!

It seems if the locking doors don't ensure you cook in the event of a fire, the windshield will cut your entire head off. Great safety standards there!

Edit: as someone pointed out it's probably the reflection of that traffic light. Hating the cuck truck is cool, but quashing disinfo is much cooler 😎

Ah, you may be right. I can see it now!

Pretty sure that’s the windshield wiper. If it isn’t then where’s the wiper, it’s usually on that side

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

You're right, I do feel a little safer knowing fewer people with give money to Elon.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Maybe I'm dumb, but where do you see a piece of the windshield missing?

Ah thanks! I thought I was looking at the windshield wiper

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

That is the windshield wiper.
