First, iSeeCars is no one. They have ZERO reputation on doing car safety reports.
Second, if you actually cared to do a few more clicks and had done at least Stat 101, you'd see that iSeeCars' study cannot be replicated because there's nothing in NHTSA data that matches its "death by miles" criteria.
Westopher is nothing but a Tesla hating libtard who sees the click-bait title and cum because it fits his narrative.
Before you frame me as fan boy, please do your homework and get back to me. I spent 10min downloading the data from NHTSA ( https://www.nhtsa.gov/file-downloads...s/FARS/)myself and did some basic stat work. If anything, Tesla is still the safest cars on road. iSeeCars manipulated datas specifically to make Tesla look bad.
And I really feel bad for libtards. They have so much hate that as long as they read something that fits their narrative and they would reach orgasm and spread all sort of hate. There is neither desire to seek the truth nor the incentive because they are afraid of finding out what they believe are not true.
Seriously... get down to the source, do your own work and then formulate your conclusion. Don't just right click, click on "search on Google" and think you have all the truth.

Any hope of taking that entire post seriously went out the door when he started throwing around "libtard"... is this 2020 again?
Is it that hard to talk to someone without classifying the entirety of their existence under one banner in your mind?

I think comparing to what they have called me before, libtard is actually being nice already. Have I ever complained?
If he's that soft and be offended by some anonymous dude he met on a forum, I am sorry, but grow the fuck up.
And I might be a Tesla fanboy. Not gonna lie... but I'm always about truth-seeking. They just want to come up with lies and BS that they read somewhere online, and ok... freedom of expression and opinion. But so is my right to call him out on his BS.

I have never been upset about anything regardless how stupid or wrong I feel some comments are and always try to maintain a conversation based on facts. The fact that RS needed a FightClub was beyond me. I'm always like... how old are these people? 5?

I dunno you got pretty offended pretty fast and you’re definitely a fanboy I don’t think that’s inaccurate. I don’t think westopher is a libtard though. Could just correct the source and be done with it. You kinda make it sound like you can’t hate Teslas without being a libtard? What if you just think they suck as a vehicle for your own reasons?
I mean, personally crash safety isn’t even a blip on my radar when deciding on a vehicle so I couldn’t possibly care less… I prefer driving older cars and they’ll all get demolished by most modern vehicles. C’est la vie, don’t crash.
Anyway, I’m waiting for the trip down to the diner report, will be better than Michelin star and/or I’m sure it will be recommended to receive one.

You spend your time on the internet writing 3000 word essays doing anything you can to suck elons dick in hopes one day he reads it and lets you be his next artificially inseminated baby mama and you want to talk about doing what you can to fit a narrative?
The number is based on stats. If you haven’t let Elon give you a botched neuralink yet you can expand from the comment I made it clear it doesn’t only mean Tesla is the most dangerous car on the road for the occupants or based on actual safety crash tests. It has to do with pedestrian safety, weighing 96 million pounds, starting on fire and burning everyone around it while it can’t be put out, the people that buy them driving like fucking morons, etc.
You are like the guy who’s racked out of his fucking mind at 4am at the kitchen table, jaw just swinging while he foams at the mouth waiting to unload his stream of consciousness without hearing anything beyond the first sentence from the guy that was just talking.

Dude. Stop talking about the vaccine. No one else is. Shut the fuck up about it.

Describing Hehe as a "fanboy" is a massive understatement, limerence might be more fitting.

I always thought EV's were safer because they have crumple zones due to lack of engine.
Curious to know why Tesla's would have more fatalities than any other brand considering their crash test ratings are among the highest.
I really wish I had a tesla though. I drive mostly highway and having even their basic autopilot would make my commute so much easier. I've sat in one with just their basic autopilot and I thought it was fantastic.

I mentioned already why.
Shitty drivers that own the cars. Pedestrian safety is near zero. Crumple zones don’t save you when you are getting cremated by your cybertruck. The fake FSD that absolute morons are allowed to use even though it isn’t safe for roads.
There’s more to it than crash testing. You need to consider the big picture.
