Tesla Cybertruck goes through NCAP's crash tests
Tesla's Cybertruck has finally gone through NCAP's extensive testing protocol and scored the highest possible rating of five stars. Historically, Tesla cars have always scored five stars for safety, so it's no surprise.
The US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) used several Cybertrucks to test the safety of the vehicle, and even though the testing was carried out in 2024, the results were only recently published.
In the head-on collision test, the vehicle scored 5/5 stars for the driver's safety and 4/5 stars for the passenger. An interesting bit about this test is that the airbags positioned at knee level didn't deploy. Tesla confirmed that they weren't designed to go off in this scenario.

Includes a neat tech throwback reference to the SA inventor of the late 1990's / early 2000's 'flamethrower hijacking deterrent', as fitted to a BMW...

Another Cybertruck bites the dust
www.20min.ch
Since Tesla's Cybertruck, with its sharp edges and bulletproof body, is too dangerous for pedestrians, it is not allowed to be used on Swiss roads. It is rare to come across them. Most of the time these are cars with foreign license plates because Switzerland cannot prohibit foreigners from driving through with a Cybertruck.
However, on Sunday morning, the Valais police officers came across a special case, as “20 Minutes” reports. A Cybertruck with Basel license plates was traveling in Aproz.
Despite the insurance plate, a complaint was filed against the driver. The driver's license and registration plates were confiscated and delivered to the cantonal road authority. The vehicle was immobilized due to a general ban on using public roads.
U license plates are intended for vehicles that are not officially registered but are still allowed to temporarily drive on public roads. However, these signs may only be attached to “vehicles of the type specified in the collective driving license that are in perfect condition and comply with the regulations,” explains the cantonal road traffic office. However, the vehicle in question does not comply with Swiss and European standards, the office continued.
The seized Cybertruck probably does not have a special permit for use on the roads. It is not yet clear what will happen to the driver and the vehicle.
Cybertruck in der Schweiz: Fahrer festgenommen und angezeigt
Die Walliser Polizei hat einen Mann angehalten, der den gepanzerten Pickup von Tesla fuhr. In der Schweiz ist der nicht zugelassen. Selbst das Versicherungskontrollschild half ihm nicht.
