Tesla CEO Elon Musk says a lot of silly things. For example, he said that Tesla's steel-plated, but not fully steel-ball-resistant Cybertruck is "apocalypse-level safe." He also said that "Cybertruck will be waterproof enough to serve briefly as a boat, so it can cross rivers, lakes & even seas that aren’t too choppy." Well, one guy apparently took that seriously, and tested it out with his Cybertruck in Grapevine Lake, an 8,000-acre lake northwest of Dallas, Texas. Now, he's in jail. According to Grapevine Police's official account on Facebook, "The driver stated he intentionally drove into the lake to use the Cybertruck’s “Wade Mode” feature. The vehicle became disabled and took on water. The driver and passengers abandoned the vehicle and the Grapevine Fire Department Water Rescue Team assisted in removing it from the lake. The driver was arrested on charges of Operation of Vehicle in Closed Section of Park/Lake and numerous water safety equipment violations." |

Eh, let's not pollute our natural environments with crap chemicals from tech bros. Instead, we should shove these cybertrucks up Elon's ass. Just shove them right up. |

Well there are a lot of these Teslas going around the world all the time, and very seldom does anything like this happen. I just don’t want people thinking that Cybertrucks aren’t safe. |
