I read a story on an auto enthusiasts forum. A guy had his Tesla totaled in the US. He claimed insurance etc and disposed it off. And then out of curiosity he opened Tesla’s app and was able to follow the car all the way across the Atlantic to Czechoslovakia before the car was deregisteted.

FYI Czechoslovakia ceased to exist in 1992.
It traveled back in time then, must be a new beta feature :)
Ah hah! That explains why the cybertruck is raw stainless steel.
Dart, sorry. I should have said Czech Republic :-).
I feel obligated to point out that the preferred name is Czechia.
This story might have a lot less impact once you learn what it takes to total a Tesla. https://www.reddit.com/r/teslamotors/comments/8bbfo2/all_it_...

In Europe most of those kinds of small fender benders are almost considered cosmetic :)
