Tesla Cybertruck Unexpectedly Accelerates Into Home With Rear Wheels Locked (jalopnik.com)

Another unintended acceleration issue. Fortunately, no one was injured but the Cybertruck still crashed into a house.

This happened in a rich-enough area that it was filmed by someone's doorbell camera. There's apparently 50-foot long line of skidmarks.

That video looks like operator error. The only tire noise you hear is when they are going too fast to make that first corner and then performed the all to common over-correction into the neighbors house. So many videos of rich idiots totaling their supercar* in the first week.

*not that this pile of shit is a supercar, but they still probably found a lot more power on tap than they were expecting.

But don't let me interrupt a perfectly good circle jerk.

This isn't the only SUA incident I'm aware of for Tesla.

The issue is that these events keep happening. Tesla Cybertruck is particularly advertised to be steer by wire and other bits that could be contributing factors.

Article states that it's not operator error, but okay
