The downvotes on this comment are a testament to the privilege of drivers. It's crazy how good people, who would otherwise not break the law, believe it's their right to speed. And before someone tells me it's a victimless crime I'll remind everyone that speeding kills both those inside and outside of your car.

The answer to why is billions of dollars of subsidies to the animal meat industry.
Yes it affects parts too, at least batteries. Stifling electric car production isn't enough, ebikes get caught in the crossfire too.
Reminder to remove the ?si= and everything after in your youtube links. It's a tracker uniquely tied to you and your watch history and the links work fine without it.
Yeah that topology is probably better described as burrito
Read the source more carefully
Tesla drivers have the highest accident rate. From Nov. 14, 2022, through Nov. 14, 2023, Tesla drivers had 23.54 accidents per 1,000 drivers. Ram (22.76)
Accidents only. Worst driver counts DUIs a d fines as well.
Saying maths is absolutely out of place here. Also taxes here aren't nearly as complicated as the US and there are a number of free tools available to file by yourself.
A free market requires stringent regulation to function humanely and morally. The two are at odds with each other. My final sentence is a critique of neoliberalism, an ideology in which regulation is reduced and power is given to corporate entities and away from regulators. It's been impossible to escape in politics since Thatcher and Reagan, and leads to some of the worst aspects of today's society that we havr to suffer. One of which is the poor people who bought a car assuming it'd be safe, just to find that the companies saved a quick buck to their loss. I hope the people win these lawsuits, but I doubt the justice system has the teeth (or willingness) to prosecute this negligence as it should be.
No, but it is the result of deregulation. Similar models sold in Canada don't have this issue because (drumroll please), federal regulations require immobilizers on new cars. Free market at work folks.
Historically, fuel regulations have been wildly effective at controlling and reducing vehicle emissions. Improving and tightening those standards is another good step forward for our climate and air quality.
