I do drives (medium and low voltage) and PLC/HMI commissioning. I work on ports, steel mills, paper mills, car plants, what have you. I must be very clear because this is only my personal experience and you should take it with a grain of salt. I also am only commenting on my very limited experience working with Tesla…

The internet was a mistake...

Just because a country does not have an extradition treaty with the US or any other country, it does not mean a person cannot be extradited.

I have a job that requires me to travel all over the world. I run to burn off energy and stay fit. I have many close calls with vehicles in the states. Even if I have right away as passenger, I always check and do not assume that others see me and I do not assume even if they see me, they will respect my right of way.

I used to live in Eastern Europe. I’ve done a lot of work in Russia, prior to Severstal pulling out the US and other issues.
