    Are there any crashes already involving pedestrians? I really wonder how broken those pedestrians are after the hit. I think the chance to survive a hit from a Cybertruck is minimal.

    And I am even surprised that it is allowed on your streets.

      To be fair, the survivability of being hit by any big US pickup is pretty small. Perhaps the cybertruck is even worse though.

      Pickups are explicitly exempted from a lot of crash/pedestrian safety laws in the US (I think related to them being classed as commercial vehicles), despite every other car on the road there being a pickup.
