They might get in trouble with EU laws if they do it here as well…
Comment on Tesla is banned from driving schools because of new turn signals
partial_accumen@lemmy.world 10 months agoTesla is going with buttons on the steering wheel instead of a stick to the left of the wheel
Its even worse than that. The buttons are smooth surface (like a touch screen) with haptic feedback. These are truly a horrible idea:
If I had one of these Tesla cars I’d look into retrofitting the stalks back in.

If this catch on, maybe 3rd party Bluetooth/USB stalk will be a thing.
paf0@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Maybe USB, but I’d certainly not want to end up having to re-pair my Bluetooth mid turn.

That doesn’t sound like it’ll be legal in a lot of countries.

Up for right and down for left. Yeah, that makes fuckin’ sense. Did they take their inspiration for the keyboard on the Apple 2GS?
It would have been smarter to zip tie the turn signal switch assembly from a 1980’s motorcycle onto the steering wheel. At least on a motorcycle switch left means left and right means right (and center is cancel).

Tesla is going to sue you for 50000 :-)

If you buy a Tesla at this point, you deserve to be stuck with it.
