Yeah that seems like a very important safety feature. Any idea why Tesla went against that to a shatter proof glass? It’s not like this is a presidential suv or something

Because Elon Musk is a manchild who thought it was cool and forced his engineers to entertain his idea? The entire design of the Cybertruck just screams "someone high up had a shitty idea and told engineering they had a month to figure out how to make it real without any regard for rules or regulations".
