This is sad. The cybertruck is a deathtrap on wheels and somehow "money" got it to pass any "money" to safety tests is beyond me...

The worst part of the article is them using the term frunk unironically.

I think frunk is a good word. What would you call a trunk that is in the front of the car.

Are there any crashes already involving pedestrians? I really wonder how broken those pedestrians are after the hit. I think the chance to survive a hit from a Cybertruck is minimal.

And I am even surprised that it is allowed on your streets.

It's going to assume you want to close the frunk and maybe something like a bag is getting in the way, which would make it close harder.

What's next? When you press the brake padel the car is going to assume that you want to slow down? Wow, that's some fantastic wisdom from Tesla!
