Deadly Ford Pinto Was Marketed as Indestructible and Carefree

Just a reminder that the 27 deaths from the Ford Pinto 1970-1977 came within context of Ford marketing the car as safe.

Tesla, by comparison, is reporting three times as many fire deaths as the Pinto in just half the time.

Teslas notoriously “veer” uncontrollably and crash. Design defects (e.g. Pinto doors) trap occupants and explode, burning everyone to death as horrified witnesses and emergency responders have to watch in horror.
