That screen is seriously distracting and the worst thing is you have to look at it even to check your speed. There is absolutely 0 information displayed behind the steering wheel. I always wonder how did this get approved.

With all the sensors onboard, can they actually go above speed limit?

[edit: never mind. they can, probably]

Theres videos online of these teslas catching like 5 seconds of air off hills in Silverlake and destroying parked cars after landing. They must not even have an accelerometer.
The speed is within your view in the top right corner of the big screen. It’s not as bad as people make it out to be.

I thought the lack of stalks and a center screen was going to be an issue. Now I feel like it’s overblown and YouTubers/the media need something to complain about.

I am not a youtuber or the media. I was seriously thinking about buying a model y late last year so borrowed a model 3 and a y from friends to test it out. I found it distracting TBH.

Not to mention the suspension issues (google "tesla whompy wheels"). After reading that junked the idea of buying it.
