UK: Cybertruck driver pulled over, vehicle seized over safety concerns: 'An over-6,000-pound piece of steel' 3/28/25

"...Though the Cybertruck recently got a high safety standard rating in the United States, the U.K. has more stringent safety standards for cars, and the Cybertruck falls short on many of these.

The first area where it fails is its size. With a massive weight of 6,898 pounds (or nearly 3 tons) and a width of 7.2 feet, the vehicle is too heavy and wide to drive safely on British roadways.... "

Things have taken a turn for me in both good and bad ways recently. I got accepted into my dream school, but I'm struggling to be able to afford to go. And since being accepted into my dream school and wanting to leave my abusive household, I'm at an even higher risk of homelessness now. Anything helps greatly, even just sharing. Thank you from the bottom of my heart :QueerCat_Trans:

Back in the early 1960s, at the Naval Base in Yokosuka, Japan, there was a park near the seawall that held a special place in our hearts. The centerpiece of the park was the remains of an old airplane, with a slide extending from the back. We affectionately nicknamed it "The Seaplane" and spent countless hours there, letting our imaginations soar. Of course, this makeshift jungle gym would never meet today’s safety standards—sharp edges and all. Yet, despite the potential hazards, we all managed to walk away with just stories to tell and memories to cherish. Remarkably, children would venture to the park on their own, drawn to the charm of The Seaplane by the seawall. It was a different era, full of adventure and freedom.

Some useful tips to stay safe while traveling to the US.

"If you’re a visa or green card holder with plans to travel to the US, [you] might be asking whether Customs and Border Protection (CBP) can search your phone, whether you can opt out and what you should do to minimize your risks."

This does not surprise me. Poor battery quality seems to plague e-bikes with after market kits (and others). BUT there is a failure in relation of the sellers - Amazon and Ebay sell this risky shit all the time with no come back. Maybe they should be forced to take responsibility - and that includes criminal liability.

Elon Musk Is the One Who Set Tesla on Fire

Protesters are the least of this company’s problems.

"Musk’s business troubles go well beyond the #TeslaTakedown protests... The myriad #safety issues plaguing #Tesla point to much broader issues with the company’s #business model. Its competitors might just be better at making #cars. The #Trump administration’s own policies aren’t helping, either."
