    Are people just willy-nilly crashing these Cyber monstrosities or what? Knowing how few are actually on the road, the number of them involved in accidents seems way too high given average accident statistics.

        GW Bush cut critical thinking out of America’s public education, and no Dem.ever tried to fix it…

        That was 2001.

        So Americans that started school then (born mid 90s) likely were never taught that skill.

        It’s why Republicans “surprisingly” gained ground with the youth vote. Kids didn’t “get more conservative” we just stopped teaching them how to use critical thinking.

        Some learned outside of school. But a shit ton of this generation just believe whatever is in front of them, because that’s all they were taught to do.

        It’s a great example of how Republicans have been using decades long plans, and neoliberals just show up every four years like a lazy groundhog and say they’re the only option.

        I know it is, but my comment still applies. I see way more images and videos of Cybertruck crashes than seems reasonable for how many there are on the road. I do wonder if they’re somehow more prone to accidents or if their drivers feel too safe and take bigger risks.
