Huh? That accident was driver error - he was watching a movie, or something.

There have only been a couple of deaths in a Tesla. The crash testing was five stars plus - nearly perfect. It can hardly be rolled over - the Cg is ~16" off the ground. The roof BROKE the roof strength testing jig.

I'll take lithium over gasoline ANY DAY. Gasoline is VERY explosive. When we get solid state batteries, they will be even better.

The Tesla Model S has the highest crash test score of any car, ever.
