I just really hope the 7,000lb steel truck doesn't crush someone to death. What a fucking awful design.

Unless it's their owner and then no one of value would be lost

Well, that's the other thing. The Cybertruck has NO crumple zones, meaning in the event of a crash all of that energy is going into the passengers. I feel like at best you'd be lucky to get out with severe whiplash.

Still, I'm more concerned about someone being flattened or worse, used for nefarious purposes. If anyone regrettably remembers when some peaceful protestors disrupting freeway traffic had a giant truck driving through them (not the Semi in Minneapolis but the regular Large Truck owner driving through an abortion rally protest, hitting 2 people).
