Yep they're called offshore not because they're foreign but because in general they're terrible at their jobs

Unfortunately this falls flat if the person driving knows about the door releases which do exist. They're a little latch that you pull just behind the window controls. So musk's passengers would all die, but he'd be fine

I've just started Aftermath by Craig Alanson, book 17 in the expeditionary force series. I've never read such a long series and it's been quite comforting to be with the same characters for so long, it's probably been almost an entire year since I started them. Lots of zany antics and fun, reminds me of Stargate SG1

This is what I'd read, this guy specifically states that the tires are much stiffer to counteract the increased wear of a regular tire from the 20-30% increase in car weight. Anyone know of any good studies on this?

Is that true about the tires though? Electric car tires are designed to be substantially tougher because of the increase in weight, do they actually shed more material?

Lot of assumptions in this thread about how terrible one pedal driving must be. No, you can just set the car to coast like normal if you want. There's still a brake pedal of you need to slam the brakes. One pedal driving takes maybe an hour to get used to, but once you learn it you won't want to go back. There's a level of regen that can be adjusted, and you quickly learn how fast that is. I generally have my foot set at a certain level to maintain a speed and if I need to stop at some lights I've gotten very used to when I need to lift my foot up for the regen to stop me at the right spot.
