Should I be surprised Teslas are owned by the worst people you know?

Tesla drivers keep having accidents because drivers let the auto pilot drive for them so that they can fellate themselves

I'm really not trying to stick up for Tesla, cause fuck Elon Musk, but the site they use has Ram as the most accident-prone drivers.

Incident, not accident IIRC...which I assume means thye run more lights and drive like shit in general, but their accident rate was still below Tesla, but not by much.

I'll read it again later to see if I'm talking out of my ass.

My thought almost verbatim, but I was thinking they were jerking it while the AP drives

No, you're right. I just checked it again myself.

On another note, who the hell still drives Mercury, Saturn, or Pontiac?

I didn't know mercury still made cars, or Pontiac for that matter.

I still see Saturns occasionally but nothing new. Maybe it's saying poor people are safe drivers because they ain't trying to get a new car note, or don't have insurance.

It's kinda my whole take from this....people with money dgaf

They can afford to get  another new car after getting a new car

I like how nobody else in the thread has pointed out that BMW drivers being up there also checks.

It's not trendy enough to hate them anymore.

I think we ran out of BWM-drivers-are-dicks jokes sometime in the late '90s.
