Someone switched to self-driving and it immediately tried to commit suicide; cybertrucks are suffering from low self esteem.

I was watching a youtube video about strange deaths or something to that nature, and the first guy to die in a Cybertruck was some ex Marine. He lived streamed while riding his cybertruck on auto pilot, and rarely had his hands on the driver's steering wheel. One incident the auto pilot swerved safely away from a potential accident. Musk even posted the clip, and this ex Marine replied that he can happily die now after Musk praised him. He continued to do streams of the auto pilot, then one day a huge container truck turned in front of him but the auto pilot was blinded because the container was solid white. The cyber truck ran right into the huge container truck and the entire roof was caved in. Guess he died a happy man. He was supposedly watching a Harry Potter movie lol.

There was an early incident of a model S ramming into a truck in a similar way and that driver was watching harry potter, think you might be mixing up details a bit.

I can't even fault :melon-musk: or Tesla. It's apparently written in the owner's manual.

Can a Cybertruck safely enter a lake? According to Tesla's online owner's manual for the Cybertruck, Wade Mode "allows Cybertruck to enter and drive through bodies of water, such as rivers or creeks". However, the manual warns that drivers have a responsibility to "gauge the depth of any body of water before entering", and that damage to the vehicle as a result of driving in water is not covered by the warranty.

Additionally, the manual tells owners they need to check water conditions before entering and to use best judgment. The manual also notes the maximum wade depth for a Cybertruck is about 32 inches, measuring from the bottom of the tire.

The manual also warns Cybertruck drivers that soft or muddy underwater surfaces can cause the vehicle to sink, increasing the water level on it. Drivers are also warned against driving in strong currents or rapids.

If these people used their "best judgement" they wouldn't be cybertruck owners.

i was distracted while reading the post title and at first i thought it said this

Driver intentionally drove Cybertruck into lake to use vehicle's "Wario Mode", police say

which makes way more sense than what actually happened.
