Tesla cars, including the Cybertruck, are much less likely to run over things, including kids, than most every other vehicle. There are distance sensors around the entire perimeter of the car that give you a visual and audio queue for when you're close to stuff, and there's cameras that also cover 360 degrees that show pedestrians and other obstacles on the navigation screen. The people at Tesla have a lot of fun even with the Cybertruck: why aren't the windows also bullet proof to small arms? Well, because it'd have to be really thick, and we recommend instead that you simply duck when shot at. |

Citation/data needed. For a vehicle that does not have millions of miles in test or production usage, with all respect, this is a marketing statement. (Millions of miles is even low, a few hundred or thousand vehicles hit those numbers in no time)
One could say the truck is designed in that way.. but again, citation needed.

Are the majority of pedestrian collisions while backing up at low speed? Does this capability have anything to do with pedestrian safety vs not backing up into a mailbox? Will these cameras move the needle in any way for pedestrian fatalities after being struck by a vehicle?
