Re: Whisper it…
There are plenty of respectable companies making good electric cars.
No need for the bloated pig of a Terdsla.
It's INSANE and LUDICROUS.
Whompy wheels are a bit of a worry too.

The driver was very lucky not to be decapitated.
Not only did Automatic Emergency Braking fail as usual on the Tesla but didn't anybody notice that the WHEEL HAS GONE WHOMPY?
I did.
I've reported it.
NHTSA
Complaint Number: 10928676
Vehicle Identification Number: unknown
Your Vehicle's Make Model and Model Year: TESLA MODEL S 2016
Note: Your VIN, make, model, and year are all protected under the Privacy Act.
What part of your car was affected? Brakes, Steering, Suspension
What happened?
Here is a report of a crash in Germany. link /lokales/bruchsal/tesla-schlaegt-in-sperrwand-ein1 The front tire is peeled off the rim. That could only have happened before the collision and is almost certainly caused by failure of the suspension. It would be almost impossible for the wheel to have turned a full revolution and peeled off the tire after the collision. The driver was seriously injured. Please take immediate action.

The main Hyperpoop route consists of a partially evacuated cylindrical tube
that connects the Los Angeles and San Francisco stations in a closed loop
system (Figure 2). The tube is specifically sized for optimal air flow around the
capsule improving performance and energy consumption at the expected travel
speed. The expected pressure inside the tube will be maintained around 0.015
psi
AT THAT PRESSURE WATER (AND BLOOD) WILL BOIL AT ZERO DEGREES CENTIGRADE
In the event of sudden depressurization YOUR HEAD WILL EXPLODE!!!
4.5.2. Capsule Depressurization
Hyperloop capsules will be designed to the highest safety standards and
manufactured with extensive quality checks to ensure their integrity. In the
event of a minor leak, the onboard environmental control system would
maintain capsule pressure using the reserve air carried onboard for the short
period of time it will take to reach the destination. In the case of a more
significant depressurization, oxygen masks would be deployed as in airplanes.
Once the capsule reached the destination safely it would be removed from
service. Safety of the onboard air supply in Hyperloop would be very similar to
aircraft, and can take advantage of decades of development in similar systems.
YES BUT.... Even if an aircraft suffers depressurization at 10,000 Metres....
YOUR HEAD WILL NOT EXPLODE!
But death is not instantaneous. For example, one 1965 study by researchers at the Brooks Air Force Base in Texas showed that dogs exposed to near vacuum—one three-hundred-eightieth of atmospheric pressure at sea level—for up to 90 seconds always survived. During their exposure, they were unconscious and paralyzed. Gas expelled from their bowels and stomachs caused simultaneous defecation, projectile vomiting and urination. They suffered massive seizures. Their tongues were often coated in ice and the dogs swelled to resemble "an inflated goatskin bag," the authors wrote. But after slight repressurization the dogs shrank back down, began to breathe, and after 10 to 15 minutes at sea level pressure, they managed to walk, though it took a few more minutes for their apparent blindness to wear off.
However, dogs held at near vacuum for just a little bit longer—two full minutes or more—died frequently. If the heart was not still beating upon recompression, they could not be revived and the more rapid the decompression was, the graver the injuries no matter how much time had elapsed in the vacuum
