Here’s the buried bombshell lede in the latest safety news about childish milquetoast fiddling that Tesla still tries to pass off as engineering.
Phil Koopman, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University who studies automated driving safety, said the letter shows that the recall did little to solve problems with Autopilot and was an attempt to pacify NHTSA, which demanded the recall after more than two years of investigation.
“It’s pretty clear to everyone watching that Tesla tried to do the least possible remedy to see what they could get away with,” Koopman said. “And NHTSA has to respond forcefully or other car companies will start pushing out inadequate remedies.”
Tesla not only is below the baseline of basic safety, it is clearly attempting to ruin the market by pulling all safety down and get more people killed unnecessarily.
So many die from Tesla design failures versus all other brands on the road, it’s a wonder the company is even allowed to continue selling cars.
It’s not even close because without fraud there would be no Tesla. Remember my stark warnings from 2021, if not throughout the five years before that?
Tesla deaths compared to all other EVs shows the obvious problem. It’s about accountability for lies, all about the Tesla CEO who regularly lies. Source: tesladeaths.com
As long as I’m posting about very unfortunately overlooked stories about the Polish cryptanalysts of WWII who were the first to break the Nazi Enigma in the early 1930s… I should also mention here that Spanish cryptanalysts collaborated with the Poles yet are even lesser known.

This documentary sheds light into the WWII story of Allied codebreakers. It was a strategic chess match in the shadows, involving the brightest minds of the era, whose outcome was crucial to speeding up a violent end to German and Italian fascism. The role of Spanish cryptographers was both pivotal and yet largely unnoticed until now.
Previously, we knew just that a group of Republican codebreakers, imprisoned by Franco’s regime, had been rescued by French military and put into service against Germany. They were joined with elite units of Allied minds (American, British, French, and Polish) to work on deciphering the Nazi Enigma machine, a tool essential to the communication of Hitler’s troops.
This film delves into the identity and contributions of this small Spanish group of codebreakers known as Team D. Overlooked by history, they courageously risked their lives in the world-wide fight against fascism.
And here’s the RTVE trailer released five years ago for a documentary called “EQUIPO D: LOS CÓDIGOS DESCONOCIDOS” (The Unknown Codes) that so far has exactly only 184 views on YouTube.
The report so far reads like a Tesla ran a stop sign and pulled out in front of a scooter, throwing the injured victim into traffic where he was then run over.

Police have said that while the accident was April 30th, the hospitalized victim succumbed to injuries on May 2nd.
The mysterious case of a brand new Tesla that crashed on a Zhejiang mountain road in China highlights a lack of both car and data integrity.
Firstly, they were shocked to learn about the vehicle’s speed at the time of the accident. According to Mr. Tang, the traffic police revealed that the vehicle had reached a maximum speed of 120 km/h. This revelation was startling to the family, as they couldn’t fathom how a vehicle could reach such a speed on a winding mountain road.
Secondly, the absence of any brake marks at the accident scene raised eyebrows. When Mr. Tang and his family visited the site, they were met with this puzzling scenario.
Mr. Tang expressed his confusion, “One would assume that the driving recorder should have captured some useful information during the vehicle’s operation. Even if the impact rendered it useless, there should at least be a record of the moment of impact. But the police are saying that there’s no record at all, which is quite baffling and inevitably prompts some distressing thoughts.”
In response to the incident, a Tesla representative stated today that they are aware of the accident and are currently relying on the police for information.
Tesla officially says they are relying on police for information?
There’s a bizarre irony to this tragic tale given Tesla just asked the Chinese government for a financial bailout based on sharing data with them, the opposite of what is being reported here.
