A 2024 study shows that Tesla drivers are some of the worst drivers in the country. Tensions rose earlier this year as Tesla CEO Elon Musk made pals with President Donald Trump. Now, everybody across the world loves picking on the Tesla company – and its owners. That’s exactly what social media did when a New York Tesla driver parked in a spot they weren’t supposed to… and disaster struck. The driver learned a lesson or two. However, those lessons arrived too late.
Henry (@henry_flexx on TikTok) shared a video titled, “Amazon won’t let your packages arrive late.” In the video, which Henry says is an example of Elon Musk vs. Jeff Bezos, you see a red Tesla vehicle parked at an intersection. You may notice in the video, however, that they’re parked at a sign that says “No standing anytime.” These signs are located at areas where no vehicles shouldn’t be parked unattended.
Because the Tesla driver apparently doesn’t understand what this sign means, he parked there anyway. Suddenly, an Amazon Prime tractor-trailer pulls up alongside the Tesla. The truck driver cautiously moves up into the intersection but, when he does, his back bumper lodges onto the Tesla. He keeps inching forward. As he does this, the bumper completely shreds the side of the Tesla vehicle up past the front passenger’s side tire. For any car aficionado, this video hurts. But then again, it is just a Tesla.
Commenters agreed that this one was an easy win for Amazon. One commenter stated, “Tesla drivers think they can do whatever they want.” Another person shared why the Tesla driver shouldn’t have parked there. They said, “This is why u don’t park on the corners where it says no standing. It’s not for show, it’s for trucks to make wide turns. Learn to give trucks space.” Unfortunately, the Tesla driver was unaware that this is how roads work, along with possibly many other things. We’re not saying that all Tesla drivers are stupid… but this could’ve been prevented.
As one commenter also proclaimed: “I don’t care how many Teslas must be sacrificed, I need my packages NOW!!!” If you’re somebody who has ever waited several days for an important package, you likely agree with this statement.
