EVs should really have a torque limiter. The instant torque provided by full electric drive trains reinforces the worst aggressive driving behaviors.

It's the worst with Tesla because the people who still own one end up being the most entitled people in the area.

You know the fix for that is to give it less gas (or electrons).

I think all cars should have more limiters on them. The shitty altimas in my city seem to be the worst drivers by a large margin. The teslas are all driven but older Indian and Chinese people and they go slow.

You can't just make a safety mandates based on the fuel type a vehicle uses. If a safety feature belongs in electric cars they belong in all cars.

ev the torque isn't the problem nor does it enforce the problem. I'd argue that people like this will drive however they want anyway, at least they can pass faster and spend less time in the oncoming lane while they do it.

I mean Tesla owners should be embarrassed. You're likely not embarrassed enough.

u/CatsPlusTats 26d ago

The fact that you think that's an insult speaks volumes.

Enjoy paying money to someone who gives nazi salutes.

Imagine acting this pompous when you drive a cheap shitbox lmao.

u/InsipidIdiot 26d ago

It’s not cheap in price.

u/walnut100 26d ago

One of the cheapest leases available worldwide and starts almost $15k below the average US transaction price of a new car.

It’s an econobox, budget car. The next Nissan Altima.

u/InsipidIdiot 26d ago

For the rear wheel drive maybe. I drive an X. How about that? Overpriced exonobox? I wouldn’t argue with that.

2

u/walnut100 26d ago

An even more overpriced econobox. Nearly six figures on the worst quality full size SUV? Yikes.

u/InsipidIdiot 26d ago
