Agreed, but Tesla should still have a weight sensor on seat to prevent this nonsense.

...and a camera for face tracking and maybe ask some basic trivia questions from the driver randomly? :D

The problem with building idiot-proof things is that idiots are way too inventive.

Why? The only people doing this are “journalists” seeking clicks (or attacking Tesla on behalf of unions or unionized auto makers) or TikTokkers making fake videos.
The seat sensor wouldn’t add any extra inconvenience, and they already have the technology. So it seems kind it could only help.
