      Because people can’t get rid of them. Many would dump it if they could, but Tesla won’t even take them in trade, and nobody will buy one used. So they have no choice but to drive it until the market changes somehow.

      There will come a time when they’ll be cheap enough to drive ironically, probably with flowers and peace signs painted on it.

      Europe seems to be safe from them so far.

        They are not allowed because of their sharp corners, no crumple zones. They’re dangerous for occupants as well as any other road users in case of an accident

          Honestly I don’t understand how they’re allowed to be sold in the US either, given how rigid the safety standards are.

            Afaik it’s because it’s a small production vehicle.
