Since 1999 it's been federal law that front driver and passenger sides of vehicles have airbags.
So no. There's airbags there coming out of someplace.
The cars wouldn’t be fit for sale, it’s not a “pay a fine” thing. They won’t be allowed to sell them.
I mean that’s fair, but I wouldn’t put my money on the cyber truck releasing without airbags. (If it ever actually sells at all)
By who? How well are laws enforced against huge corporations?
I mean, do you think they’d be allowed to sell a car without seatbelts? Like honestly?
If this thing ever actually gets released and it doesn’t have airbags, feel free to message me an “I told you so”. I just don’t think it’ll happen.
You could have asked the same question about whether a company like Uber would really be allowed to run an illegal taxi company. Or if AirBnb would be allowed to run an illegal hotel company.
I'm not saying it'll happen for sure, just that it's not as far outside the realm of possibility as you might think. Breaking the law but being too big for it to really matter is a business strategy.
