Watch This Cybertruck Get a Steering Fault After 1 Mile
This wouldn’t be good in any car, but the Cybertruck uses a unique electric steer-by-wire system without a physical connection.
A new Tesla Cybertruck owner has crashed his car into a house after it’s alleged the vehicle’s brake didn’t disengage the accelerator.
Posting on social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter), user bfreshwa said his Cybertruck – which had only been on the road for four hours – had accelerated unexpectedly, causing it to launch into a house.
The throttle was said to be completely unresponsive, meaning the truck’s brake didn’t disengage the accelerator.
There are two angles out for him. One is the “in the public interest” sidestep of DMCA. That was used by a site or two to keep the Crazy Tom Cruise videos of 2007 up in the face of Scientology’s lawyers. It only slowed the crushing down, as I recall (and sparked Project Chanology).
The other is that he’s permitting “reaction videos”, which possibly don’t directly show any CNN content, only someone’s reaction to it, like the gaming “review” ones.
That article seems to focus on how much the weight of the boat is affecting the range, but in my experience the aerodynamic drag is probably the larger factor for highway driving, especially given the size and shape of that boat.

Tesla Is About to Lose Its EV Market Majority in the US
Elon Musk’s six-year streak of selling more electric cars in the US than every other automaker combined may be coming to an end this month.
No, man. It’s a hidden feature! Years back the Model S had a hidden feature where if you typed 007 into the touchscreen it would pretend to be the Lotus submarine car from The Spy Who Loved Me. Obviously this is just another secret mode that mimics a car from a different James Bond film.
I guess emulating movie cars would go a long way to explaining why they burst into flames when they hit things, too. It’s your chance to make an awesome leap to safety!
