    Ram trucks drive like fucking assholes so I believe this. Damn near any time you see one of those lifted Dodge trucks on the highway you can assume they’ll behave like a jerk if given the opportunity.

    And as far as Teslas go, I really do not think people should have cars that accelerate that fast. People are dumb as shit and Tesla’s slowest model has a 0-60 of under 6 seconds and a lot of their cars are sub 4 seconds. That’s super car territory.

      Super car acceleration, normal car braking.

      It’s not a great combination in a car that’s heavy, but I guess you don’t sell cars by bragging about braking distances.

        Plus they are designed to have low amount of aerodynamic drag. So no aerodynamic grip in fast corners.

          On most public roads, if you’re driving fast enough for downforce to be an issue, your poor judgment is the primary factor in any resulting crash.

          Which is true but not any different than normal cars. Very very very few cars have enough aero to matter—even on the track.

      They dropped to second place for DUIs at least. BMW drivers are nearly twice as likely to be caught driving drunk.

        The Venn diagram for Ram trucks, domestic abuse, DUIs, religiosity, and racist fucks is indistinguishable from a circle.

          Also gun ownership and wife beating probably

          And a hard drive full of cold pizza

      I agree, but what to do about owners of supercars then? It’s not like if they have any particular training to operate them safely, for the most part.
