To add another factor:
People buy muscle cars and over accelerate because they can't handle the power of those cars
EVs accelerate much quicker than normal cars, Tesla's more than normal EVs
So if someone isn't using the automation they're still susceptible to the classic "overshot into or over something" situation
They also think because the car accelerates quickly it will also stop as quickly. Same as idiots that drive too fast in the snow.
