Oh please. You see people drive recklessly on the road all the time. Some even deliberately drive over the cliff. Are you going to ask regulatory agencies to ban cars to use our public roads altogether?

Sleeping while driving?? Dammit Tesla! This never happened before until you came along!

Except in this instance there was no crash or damage from an action that would certainly have caused a crash in almost any other car. 

So, driver falls asleep and instead of instant death like in any other car, the Tesla kept him safely in his lane and there was no accident. Damn it Elon!  

“If his little thing tied around that steering wheel fell off, and he was still sleeping, he would have slammed into somebody going 65 miles per hour,” Miladinovich said.

China really only holds most of the open mines for rare earth metals. They exist in deposits on every continent, just not with active mines on them.

This is like saying tesla wouldn’t be around if investors stopped investing in them. Of course it’s true, but sorta beside the point now...

Mainstream media has always been slow. The delay in reporting these days is largely because of all the newspapers that have died. 

That guy spouting off has a bone to pick with Tesla, nothing more. You are right, Tesla has been doing this for years. They’ll just lose more money when they can’t sell them anymore. Just like any other business maximizing a possible revenue stream.

That’s a bit of a red herring, isn’t it? A Tesla is likely a cleaner car than an F150 on net at the end of life.

My thought as well. This admin seems intent on gutting whatever power the EPA has to regulate this stuff.

The uproar over Tesla selling credits, without them they may not still be in business is super old news.  All that is news is who is buying them.  The mainstream media is most often so late to the game, I hate how then a story like this blows up and everyones reporting on it.  Should of done a better job investigating…

Last year, competing automakers paid Tesla $420 million to buy absolution because they were unable to meet the emissions mandate,”.

1st Gear: Huh, all of these carbon-offsets and fuel economy requirements haven’t already been rolled back?  Who knew???

Audi lined it up against the Model 3 in their own release. On top of that the new Model X Long ranges are getting 150 miles in a 15 minute charge, which is still going to crush the E-tron’s time.  The e-tron has a small battery, and it’s charge isn’t nearly as fast as they are trying to make people think.  It’s a…

Audi benchmarked themselves against the Model 3 in their version of the chart.

Audi is playing with numbers and trying to convince people that slamming the battery hard is a good thing. The better metric is how long does it take to add enough mileage to get home or to the next charger as that is what people actually care about:

To be fair, most cars will fail at real road-course racing. It’s usually going to be brakes first, but then there’s differentials, gearboxes, electronic intrusions, overheating water and/or oil (e.g. Corvette), etc.

You cant overheat this car on a road course. Believe me, we tried. The M3P has massive untapped potential for just about anything other than endurance racing.
