Of course I embellished the numbers, but any legacy manufacturer would be ecstatic to grow 5% YoY, not to mention 40%.

Reminds me of the inmate that said "she made me do it". There's always something else to blame.

I could defeat Tesla safety measures, therefore Tesla is to blame. It was clear that I'm solely responsible for the safe operation of my vehicle, therefore Tesla is to blame if I royally screw up.

The fact that some randos are recording the incident tells me the people responsible were drunk, and fled the scene as quickly as possible. If the Tesla were to blame, the totally sober people would be recoding the incident as evidence.
