For as few cybertrucks as there are out there, it seems there are way too many accidents. This thing is not a toy, people have to stop treating it like one before someone gets hurt

Very odd as to how the 1.8 mm thick door skins peeled off the door shell.

Tesla call it HFS.....l can see how the laser welded door inners and outer 1.8mm HFS parted ways through shear forces! Both door edges caught ahold of something SHEARIOUS!

After seeing the drivers I am 0% surprised by this result
Whaaaat? They are male, pretty young with "matchy matchy" outfits to the truck. Hmmm. so I can't wear gray in my unwrapped truck?

Honestly though. This truck is a tank and a missile at the same time! What ever it hits, it will win and probably keep the occupants safe. On this one ... the doors stayed closed, curtains kept them from throwing arms out the window. Sort of like NASCAR or F1. Terrible wrecks but not many serious injuries. But it will happen to be bad soon.

CT, obviously, at a high rate of speed, ran off the right side of the roadway into the "bar ditch." The driver over corrected, the truck rolled onto the passenger side, and traveled some distance while the skin on the side of the truck was sheared off by the ground. Due to the weight of the battery being in the very bottom of the vehicle the CT did not "roll over" (as an ICE vehicle likely would have), and rolled back onto its wheels as it came to a rest.

That's why there was so much damage on the passenger side.

No need to be engineer to point the obvious and unfortunately this.... is....not..... looking.... good.
I would think Tesla detractors would wait for a Cybertruck occupant to get at least a bloody nose or a sprained ankle in a crash before trying to create the narrative that Cybertrucks are not safe in high-speed accidents. ?
