Is the CT an accident magnet ? Has scaled to 2000 units in only a couple of months ?

I count 3? accidents already. A car coming off an embankment, the rear ended, and now this.
Nope. You only hear about them because it’s a Tesla .

Kinda like how the media reports

“A Tesla crashes in San Diego!”

instead of

“ There was a car crash in San Diego”

Typical clickbait bullshit. CT makes it more clickbaitable…. Is that even a word?? ??

My personal feel is that driving with AP / FSD reduces accidents for inattentive drivers all around the CT plus *in* the CT ... and significantly increases reaction time. One reason I use it ... plus it is more relaxing.

Still wondering the timeframe to at least get AP working on the CT.

I am increasingly getting worried for my big loop across Canada and the US after pickup. From Washington to Key West, back up to Maine, then back across Canada to Montana. Odds on a rear end seem high with camera phones these days.

Well if you’re worried about rear enders on your big trip, put the phone down. This case looks like the front bumper of a CT and a rear bumper of a Honda.
Lol you think I am holding the phone? I will be sure to tell that to the people filming the truck while driving other cars. Do people actually read these days?

Where is the significant damage... The pics look like a typical fender bender?

looks like tesla designed the front to absorb a frontal impact. This is probably safer than having no crunch zone.
