Another day, another anti-Tesla hit piece based on allegations in a lawsuit. Here's what the media won't tell you about what happened: This tragic incident was a drunk driving crash. Every year, more than 11,000 Americans die due to drunk driving, representing about 30% of traffic fatalities. Sentry mode footage on the Tesla showed one of the occupants carrying a half gallon bottle of alcohol, which was inside the car at the time of the crash. The driver was found to have both cocaine and alcohol in his system at the time of the crash, with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.19, 2.5 times the legal limit. At 3:07 AM, the driver drove into a tree at 84 miles per hour. Five seconds before hitting the tree, the driver was pressing on the accelerator pedal. Automatic Emergency Braking activated a half second before impact. Tragically, 3 of the 4 occupants perished after the wrecked car caught fire. The way the media reports these stories, you would think that Elon Musk invented drunk driving, and that drunk driving crashes only happen in a Tesla. In reality hundreds of thousands of drunk driving crashes happen every year across every brand of car on the market. The survivor of the crash is now suing Tesla, claiming the crash was their fault because the other occupants were unable to escape. But Tesla's doors are designed to function even when the vehicle completely loses power. Below you can see a picture of Tesla's doors, with both the electronic door open button and the emergency door latch clearly marked. Even in a horrific high speed crash like this one, simply pulling on the manual release would have opened the door and allowed the occupants to exit easily. I don't see any evidence that the door was the issue here. Rather, the issue seems to be that the occupants were drunk and high on cocaine. The Plaintiff in this lawsuit could have called his friends an Uber. He could have told them not to drive drunk. He could have told the driver not to speed given that he was already drunk. Sadly, the Plaintiff did none of those things, but is now trying to shift the blame to Tesla. In the United States, people can sue over anything. It's very common, even in situations where a drunk driver was at fault, to sue the manufacturer — especially when the manufacturer is run by the wealthiest person on Earth. That doesn't mean the manufacturer is at fault, or that the court will find they did anything wrong. These types of lawsuits happen all the time, but they only make headlines when the car is a Tesla. In one case last year, Mercedes-Benz was sued after the owners of a Benz were hit by a drunk driver driving on the wrong side of the road. The crash occurred at 2 AM in Michigan. Plaintiff's sued claiming a design defect caused the Mercedes to catch on fire, and that the second row seat release mechanism was defective making it difficult for occupants to escape. Two family members tragically died in the crash, and another sustained serious injuries. After five weeks of evidence, the jury cleared Mercedes-Benz of any wrongdoing in just 2 hours. But i'm guessing you never heard about that lawsuit, because the media didn't report on it. In another example, Ford was sued after a Ford owner was driving drunk and crashed, resulting in the death of the driver and one passenger. The driver's father sued claiming the air bags should have deployed sooner. Ford won the lawsuit, with the jury finding that the crash was caused by the driver's intoxication, not by any defects in the vehicle. There are countless other examples, but you've probably never heard about them. These types of unproven allegations only get reported if it's a Tesla. For any other brand, they wait for the court to look at the facts and find out who was really at fault. It is sad that the media and Tesla short sellers are trying so hard to smear the safest car brand in the world. They try to make it seem like humans can only get into car crashes in a Tesla. What they don't tell you is that Tesla is the only brand working to end tragic crashes like this through the structural design of their vehicles, over the air updates that improve safety constantly, and self-driving built into every car. The saddest thing about this Cybertruck crash is that if the drunk driver had just using Tesla Self-Driving, this horrific crash never would have happened. So what's with the media digging up these old crashes and trying to blame Tesla for them? Why are they not reporting on lawsuits from other manufacturers? My read on this is that as Tesla's unsupervised self-driving hits the road, they are trying to throw anything they can at the wall to see what sticks and makes Tesla look unsafe. There's a special place in hell for people who try to convince others that life saving safety tech will actually hurt them. It's frustrating to see the media twist the facts around tragic incidents like these day after day, but the truth will come out in court. Please keep spreading the word about all the safety innovations Tesla is pioneering to fight back against FUD from the mainstream media.

FMVSS rules Tesla most likely had to engineer around to make a no-steering-wheel Cybercab viable (and scalable beyond exemptions).

Can Tesla scale the Cybercab beyond the 2,500 annual limit now? It appears that Tesla could produce and deploy Cybercabs above the 2,500-vehicle cap only if the vehicle fully complies with all applicable FMVSS (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards). If Tesla certifies compliance, the exemption system - and its 2,500-vehicle annual limit - is irrelevant. Tesla can scale far beyond 2,500 per year if Cybercab: 1) Meets all crashworthiness standards. 2) Meets all remaining FMVSS (lighting, glazing, braking, occupant protection, etc.). 3) Self-certifies like any normal vehicle. This rule (see linked post below) helps because it removes barriers tied to having no steering wheel. If Cybercab is engineered for compliance from day one, the 2,500 limit never matters. The rule explicitly acknowledges vehicles designed to operate solely by ADS may have no manually operated driving controls (including steering). Standards written around steering controls simply don’t apply and manufacturers do not need to add redundant manual controls just to comply (sorry @farzyness). If a vehicle has no steering control system, these standards effectively drop out: FMVSS 203 – impact protection from the steering control system FMVSS 204 – steering control rearward displacement Because there is no component to regulate. Removing the wheel does NOT relax safety standards. Vehicles without steering wheels must still meet: - FMVSS 208 (airbags, restraints) - FMVSS 214 (side impact) - FMVSS 226 (ejection mitigation) - Other crashworthiness rules Dual-Mode Vehicles Follow Different Rules If a vehicle has manual controls (even stowable), then the seat with access to them is still regulated as a driver position. So, removing the wheel entirely results in a simpler compliance path. Whereas stowable controls results in more regulatory complexity. There is no “steering wheel rule.” There is only a compliance rule - and post-2022, a driverless vehicle with no steering wheel is fully permissible under FMVSS if it meets all other safety standards.

Why Tesla can produce more than 2,500 Cybercabs per year — even without a steering wheel: Many traditional FMVSS (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards) were written decades ago for cars with human drivers and literally assume the presence of manual controls. Without them, full compliance is impossible. Concrete examples: 1. Steering wheel/column — FMVSS 204 (Steering Control Rearward Displacement): This standard limits how far the steering column can move backward into the cabin during a 30 mph frontal crash test (max 5 inches / 127 mm). The entire requirement and test procedure are built around the physical steering control. No steering wheel = no way to test or comply as written. 2. Pedals — FMVSS 135 (Light Vehicle Brake Systems): Requires service brakes to be activated by a foot pedal, with specific performance criteria for stopping distance, pedal force, and application rate. The official test procedures explicitly depend on applying force to the brake pedal. No pedals = the standard cannot be met as written. For pure ADS vehicles (no manual controls ever), manufacturers must request a special exemption from NHTSA. Federal law caps these exemptions at just 2,500 vehicles per manufacturer per year (49 U.S.C. § 30113). However, NHTSA created a clear regulatory pathway in its 2022 Occupant Protection Final Rule for “dual-mode” vehicles (those with stowable/installable manual controls). Manufacturers can certify the same vehicle in both configurations: - Controls installed = treated as a traditional driver’s seat (full FMVSS compliance). - Controls stowed = that same seat is treated as a passenger seat. Key language from the rule: “When they were stowed, the vehicle would be subject to the FMVSS requirements at the DSP as applied to a passenger seat.” This allows full self-certification with no exemption needed and no 2,500 limit. Yes, this system is kind of dumb. A vehicle that operates identically in the real world gets treated completely differently just because one version has a removable wheel for certification day. NHTSA openly treated the 2022 rule as a temporary bridge — they didn’t want to rewrite dozens of decades-old standards from scratch all at once. Updating the entire FMVSS framework for true driverless vehicles is a slow bureaucratic process that’s still underway. This dual-mode certification path is exactly why Tesla can ramp Cybercab production starting April/Q2 2026 without hitting the exemption wall.

MKBHD was asked during his podcast last month which products won’t ship in 2026: One of his answers: “Oh, easy. Cybercab.” Elon Musk just confirmed yesterday that Tesla will indeed sell a Cybercab to a customer for ~$30K by the end of 2026.💈

The most annoying part of FSD for me now (by far) is the fact that I still have to pay attention. I usually take over in parking lots because it sucks at picking spots, and usually tries to go to the pin before searching, which is unnecessary 90% of the time. But this isn’t as big of a deal as having to pay attention. There is also plenty of evidence that nav sucks, but this is very rarely an issue for me where I drive. The most frequently annoying thing now is that I can’t just watch TV or something. This is why I remain bullish regardless of bumps in the road or rollout delays. I am 100% certain they’ve solved self driving. There is zero doubt about this in my mind. Nothing left that they won’t obviously be able to grind through based on what we’ve already seen.
