I saw this car in the Tesla showroom in Canada, I have no intention of buying a Tesla but we were shopping around for a car and the Tesla dealership was in the same auto-mall. Out of curiosity, I walked in and asked about it. I then asked how much will this be at MSRP in Canada and he said "oh this is just for show, we can't sell this in canada". goes to show how unsafe this car is because Canada and U.S laws are relatively similar. If you can sell a car in U.S, more than likely you can sell the same car in Canada. But not the Cybertruck and I found that hilarious.

Has nothing to do with safety or anything in regards to cyber truck, has to do with some bogus regulation about protruding edges in Europe. Canada they just have to wrap up "paperwork" so the company said. So 2025 they expect cyber truck to be in Canada. The fact of the matter is, you can love to share it, but a semi on the road is far more unsafe than a cyber truck.

[@thatguyoverthere9634]

​@@JayGalatica the "bogus" rules in Europe are pedestrian safery regulations. If someone's accelerator pedal sticks and you end up hitting a crowd of pedestrians, the cybertruck is basically built to kill pedestrians.

But I'm sure pedestrian safety is less of a concern to you than getting to drive around in the EV equivalent of a brick with razor blades on the edges

The only way to get the right angle to wedge the loosened pedal is to fully depress it while also pushing it up, so I would hope that only happens with intent in situations like overtaking or on the track.

@@MarkW1210my thoughts exactly 😭

[@soulchorea]

I believe the idea was debunked years ago, that you couldn't stop the vehicle if the accelerator pedal got stuck. Hitting the brake on gas and electric cars will make it stop. Turns out people who thought they were hitting the brake (including that unfortunate driver in the viral 911 call) were most likely confusing the pedals in their understandable panic

[@bosstowndynamics5488]

Depending on the circumstances and the vehicle it's possible for the brake to fail in that situation, but because of the way EV control systems work the brake is also in input that controls the electric motors so it should be configured to directly command the car to stop accelerating, whereas in ICE the engine is going to wind up fighting the brakes to at least some extent

[@soulchorea]

@@bosstowndynamics5488 That's the theory I'm takling about; I believe it was Car and Driver who did a test on a bunch of vehicles trying to recreate what you're describing, and in every situation the car just stops like normal. Essentially no one's been able to replicate this idea in real life

@@fxzn Sure here you go: Scam "a dishonest scheme; a fraud:" At reveal the CyberTruck was meant to cost $21,000-$39,000 yet at release that ballooned to $60,000-$100,000. In real world conditions they get 50 freedumb units less range than advertised. You cant wash the car in the sun, and it breaks if you don't have it in the right mode when going through a car wash. You also need to avoid getting it wet in general as it gets rusty. Numerous customers have had their cars stop working within days with others making it barely a few km before the car gives up. Then there's all the design flaws, the lack of crumple zone puts those in the CyberTruck and whatever they hit at increased risk of injury. that leads onto the fact that it's covered in sharp edges and it's only a matter of time before it slices a pedestrian. Some of those sharp panels are held down by double sided tape. There's plenty more but this comment is already way too long.

[@RealDonDenito]

Pretty important, thanks for clarifying: brake pedal overrides accelerator.

[@Artyomthewalrus]

Tis important, but still very dangerous if you don't realize what's going on. It accelerates so fast that you can get into trouble very quickly. I had a similar issue in my car. Not exactly the same, but my cruise control normally shuts off when I tap either pedal, if I brake or accelerate cruise control shuts off till I press it again. One time it didn't, it temporarily shut off cruise control when I applied the breaks, decelerated from 120km/h to 40km/h when entering a small town on a highway - when I let off the break, cruise control resumed unexpectedly and tried to accelerate to the previously set speed. I drive a manual, so it couldn't accelerate that fast and didn't pose any safety risks. But if I was driving an automatic or electric, that random unexpected acceleration could have been dangerous. For this to happen in a cybertruck it would be much more dangerous. First, to be fair, to get stuck in such a position you need to put the pedal all the way to the floor in the first place which does limit where it might happen - merging onto the highway or something similar, unlikely in a residential zone. If this happens and you apply the brakes, sure it'll over ride it - but as soon as you let off the brakes, it will unexpectedly accelerate insanely fast. It's a lot safer than not doing that, yes. But that secondary max acceleration after you thought you had it under control would still be incredibly dangerous.

I had to watch this twice because how is the loop THIS clean

[@iPig]

This is an insane oversight. No fasteners on the pedal, plus that perfect little notch to catch it. Nobody could foresee this??

[@xX12VincEXx]

With adhesive? Without any pin that keeps it on place? Your own fault, I would say if you cheap out on that.

[@Did_U_Know..]

Wow Great loop

[@benm5678]

haha...the loop that represents life -- can't find the beginning😂

[@user-hy7kq8gw2g]

Deep

[@ProfMannion]

"Unapproved"? It was approved clearly.

[@GodBlessTheChild1]

One going bad to that extent, in the right situation, could cause serious repercussions. “Thank You!” for sharing

[@Zarotoshi]

Bro thinks he slick with that loop, we see you Marques 😏

[@sbowesuk]

Yet more confirmation that Tesla's have junk-tier design and build quality. It has never just been about uneven panel gaps. These vehicles are terribly made from the ground up!

[@MudflyWatersman]

I was in a vehicle the accelerator got stuck once.... Full brakes on... We took a 90° turn at about 40 mph..... Late 70s Chevy suburban . Happened to one of my vehicles as well in the 90s... Isuzu trooper. On that one a small plastic fitting on the end of the throttle cable got tacky with age... Stuck to the throttle cable... And when you release the pedal the the cable got stuck by pulling that tacky piece into the cable tube There's a lot of knowledge that goes into building a trouble-free vehicle that new manufacturers simply do not have.... Existing manufacturers learned through the School of hard knocks over 70 years

[@collynchristopherbrenner3245]

That's a really smooth loop transition. Props sir, you have transcended in video prod

[@MrChilili]

Corolla smashes into you at full speed (120mph): 😟 Cybertruck smashes into you at full speed (120mph) (also 6000lbs): ☄️

[@patx35]

You're assuming that the Corolla can reach 120 MPH

[@Oscillutical]

Bro, whatever car hits you at 120mph be it a shitbox or a cybertruck you're not gonna live...

[@Artyomthewalrus]

@@Oscillutical Depends what you are driving. Corolla rear-ends a schoolbus at max speed, most passengers likely live. Cybertruck, many more deaths. Head on collision vs a sedan, yeah, you are dead regardless of if a truck or car hits you at those speeds

[@gamernerd7139]

@@Artyomthewalrus So you have been a safety engineer who has been doing such tests? If I had your gift at vehicle dynamics guessing I would have cashed in on that.

[@Artyomthewalrus]

@@gamernerd7139 Seriously? Basic physics. Cybertruck has 2x more mass and thus kinetic energy. Has a higher front end. Corolla's front end is lower than the school bus's rear bumper, so it would crumple underneath the bus. Cybertruck would make full contact with the rear of the bus - with twice the kinetic force. And likely the truck would crumple less and absorb less impact. Cybertruck will likely impart around 3x the force and in a much worse location. In what world would they impart the same damage and cause the same loss of life? A school bus has around 10x the mass of a corolla. School Busses have an extremely solid body on frame construction - and they are designed to crumple whatever hits them. Ask anybody who graduated elementary physics what will cause more damage and loss of life in such a scenario.

[@Coachmeister]

Are any of you even really surprised?

[@bl8danjil]

I feel like this would be the best time to show everyone what to do with a stuck throttle in a modern, push to start car when the brake does not override the throttle and then when brakes fail to slow down the vehicle.

[@zUkrainak47]

this is THE SMOOTHEST loop ive ever seen on a short

[@nickice7009]

This is why it is so difficult to make a new car company. Safety is the hardest part to get right

[@rang07du]

you can read SAE papers before😮

[@airbagsagain]

Tesla has been around for over a decade and made an suv that couldn’t roll over, yet they can’t fit an accelerator pedal. They aren’t a startup company anymore.

[@gamernerd7139]

@@airbagsagain Toyota has been around from the 70's in the US. They still have safety recalls. Dont be a biased f@@#. I can understand people not liking Elon, but Tesla is company with a lot of employees.

[@airbagsagain]

@@gamernerd7139 1st: Tesla can make a safe car. I acknowledged that with the Model X that broke the highway rollover test by not being able to roll over. 2nd: if I had a family member die in a toyota, I wouldn't go "at least they weren't driving a tesla". I'd be pissed if it was due to negligence from toyota. The sticking pedal is a safety issue due to bad design, cost cutting, and poor build quality. Toyota also had an issue where they put tekata airbags in all their vehicles, that would fire shrapnel towards the occupants in an accident and hurt them. TLDR: Companies make mistakes. And mistakes that can kill people shouldn't be treated with bias. But in response to this specific video, "but Tesla is company with a lot of employees" is a shitty excuse to the owners who may have to deal with an out of control vehicle. That shit isn't fun, and I hope you never have to experience it in your lifetime.

[@mryellow6918]

​@@gamernerd7139iv never seen Toyota recall the entire stock of onw of its models because they just fundamentally used like fucking blu tack to stick on the throttle.

[@mand4Iex]

No over-the-air update this time 😅

[@lamsmiley1944]

just a slightly off-centre rivet to hold it in place.

[@REDDVL2008]

This is one of the best shorts loops!

[@Nemesis-pe7mw]

Yup, that sounds like Tesla quality right there!

[@ThatHz-]

Tesla… stop using stickers and make a real pedal…

[@EverythingAwesomeTech]

Well, Tesla has recreated Toyota's recall of a similar issue of 2010...

[@ballbag]

Except it's not the same exact issue at all, that issue was peoples loose car mats getting stuck.

[@EverythingAwesomeTech]

@@ballbag True, but with the same outcome

[@Alex-ug9wx]

It’s almost like the US governments poor regulation and inspection of new cars has resulted in allowing these types of things on the roads. I cannot say I’ve heard of such a dangerous defect affecting ALL CARS of a certain type in a very long time, if ever, being non-American…

[@pete-bd5lj]

That’s just the tip of the iceberg… if something so simple like this was missed who knows what faulty technology hasn’t even been detected yet…

[@lanceareadbhar]

That is actually insane and as long as nobody is in front of you on a straight road, the brakes will stop it and I guess you would have to keep your foot on the brake while getting it unstuck. With EVs and normal traffic flow, there's a good chance you'd hit somehing at extreme speeds before getting to the drive pedal and the drive pedal overrides any safety features by design that would have stopped a car from a collision since there are times where driving around is safer than hard braking.

[@jeremispetre1988]

Imagine any other car maker comming out with this thing. Everybody would have tear it to shreeds, but because is a tesla, people are ok with this barn build.

[@LemmonDP]

What are you talking about? Did you crawl out from under a rock to post this comment? The cyber truck is the most shit talked vehicle in history. Literally just scroll through this exact comment section that you posted in.

[@user-nv9ig6po1d]

I really love looking at these cars on the road

[@MrAmad3us]

That’s the dumbest possible quality issue to have. Imagine recalling ALL your trucks because of something dumb af like that

[@avel7007]

That was a smooth transition
