As far as I'm aware the US doesn't have any(or at least not many) pedestrian safety standards. That's actually the reason the Cybertruck isn't sold in Europe, it didn't meet Euro pedestrian standards. I mean just look at the fucking thing, it's all sharp edges and corners lol

Huh, that hood is a head scratcher. I think I have some homework tonight.

I also read that neither the NHTSA nor the IIHS rated the Cybertruck in crash tests, and that all testing was done in-house.

I'm basing that claim on this videos. I haven't looked into it further.
