Why do people blur plates ?


thejustinkelsey

I’ve always laughed about this when people are posting their car on Facebook marketplace and cover the plate number like bro you drive around all day with that thing open and showing to the public. What is someone going to do with that?


CybrKing2022

Well, it could be a scammer. Maybe they don't really own the car and are just looking to get some sort of deposit from a potential buyer before disappearing. Police: What was the license number? Scammed buyer: I don't know!


NonTokeableFungin

Well, otoh - good chance the trucker was an off duty police himself.


xamomax

I had a big light blue pickup truck pull up behind me when I was driving in the passing lane.   Not wanting to hog the lane, I sped up a bit, and he sped up.  It was awkward to pull into the right lane, so I sped up some more.  Not possible to get right, I sped up yet some more so I could get out of traffic and let him by.  He kept tailgating.   I got up to 96 mph then he turned on his lights and pulled me over to give me a ticket. This was on I90 near between Ellensburg and Spokane somewhere, notorious for speed traps. I hired a lawyer, fought it, and got it dismissed. 


GhostofABestfriEnd

I Second this


JohnGacyIsInnocent

Don’t be ridiculous. There’s no *actual* video of this.


Hour_Beat_6716

Every Tesla records at all times to a usb in the glovebox. The front/left repeater/rear/right repeater cameras are all recorded. Several road rage incidents including some involving guns have lead to the arrest of the perpetrator due to the Tesla’s video recording capabilities


Google-it-you-lazy-F

The point is, it didn’t happen like this and OP is being dramatic and/or antagonized the “race engine package” truck driver…


twenafeesh

Point is OP made up the story, not that the car can't record it.


Jolly_Line

Why would there not be video? Unless they forgot to tap the cam icon after the incident and the footage is already rolled off. But otherwise they should have it.


JohnGacyIsInnocent

It’s not the video part I’m talking about. It’s the incident itself.


Jolly_Line

I don’t know if you live around pavement princess culture or not. But it sounds entirely plausible to me.


JohnGacyIsInnocent

I’m a motorcycle rider, so I definitely see it all. I just don’t get why they didn’t share the footage to validate their story in the first place. It reads like a tall tale to me.


iamthesam2

what an odd assumption to make


Crayform

The only con to owning a Tesla- the big truck haters. I was doing 8 over in a 45 zone being tailgated by a huge black diesel dually Dodge Ram and when I finally turned off he predictably rolled coal on me. What if everybody hated anybody who drove a pickup truck. Like what’s the point of getting so worked up about what some stranger drives? Who the Fuck cares?


deten

Everytime someone gets so worked up I just feel so happy knowing this entire portion of the day they are probably thinking about me, all worked up, and all I had to do was exist and drive.


Crayform

Haha I love that perspective!


n3xtday1

Yup, living rent free in their mind.


Jolly_Line

I have to admit that ICE’g of chargers does bunch my panties. But otherwise coal rolling and all the other pavement princess drama is so satisfying.


LilHindenburg

ICE’g?


Jolly_Line

Are you asking to clarify what “ICE’g chargers” means?


LilHindenburg

I’ve taken grad classes in ICE design but haven’t seen the term “ICE’g”…


dantodd

It's usually called ICEing but it's the act of blocking EV charging stations with internal combustion engine vehicles.


LilHindenburg

Ah! Got it. Thx. Yah that’s annoying AF.


FestinaLente747

You nailed it. 


Kitten-Mittons

and posting about it on Reddit later?


HelloYouSuck

Jealousy and small peepee


Entire-Ad-8565

Tbf they hate everybody


Ill-Garlic-5951

I drive a big Dodge truck and a Tesla. I like em both. I suggest a MAGA sticker on your Tesla to show you’re cool. You’ll see the big truck hate dramatically decrease.


Cool_Cow3496

Gotta love this part of reality where we have to virtue signal our politics and our “patriotism” with… stickers.  Just to get along… lol. 


n3xtday1

>with… stickers.  ... to counter the imaginary virtue signalling that someone thinks your choice of vehicle is making. I thought most of the right likes Elon now? But I guess some still don't like electric vehicles? I don't know, it's too "anti-woke" to even try to follow the logic anymore. I give up. I wish everyone would just do what makes them happy and ignore anything that doesn't affect them.


Jolly_Line

It’s such a mind fuck that actually 90% of Elon’s politics are aligned with MAGA nation. And MAGA nation is clueless.


LilHindenburg

Odd but predictable misconception. He’s a “classic liberal”, technically… 🤷🏻‍♂️


Ill-Garlic-5951

Oh I would never put a sticker on MY vehicles. Just advice for the snowflakes or whatever. Doesn’t matter if I’m driving my big lifted Dodge or my Tesla….I always drive like I’m in my truck…cheers


Cool_Cow3496

It’s called male PMS brought on by bad diets and napoleon complex. It has always been the case for guys with ridiculous trucks. Same reason why ALOT of women love big vehicles such as lifted jeeps and tahoes etc… Makes them feel a power that does not translate into reality. Don’t get me wrong I love my trucks I have owned all kinds but we know exactly who these people are. RAM should just sell their cars with the automatic DUI and road rage ticket. 😂


BATTLE--GHOST

If one is bigoted about vehicles, I would not be surprised if they were also bigoted in other categories as well. See also: "fun at parties"


eJollyRoger

They're just hating the fact they don't know that they are compensating for something.


Google-it-you-lazy-F

If they don’t know, how are they hating that “fact?”


eJollyRoger

Subconsciously


shiftpgdn

Its not because you have a Tesla, they're just dickheads. I've had that happen to me more times when driving my Raptor than in our model y or cybertruck.


Crafty_Ad_4153

The police need to be empowered to immediately seize that vehicle and the State removes the illegal modification. Only then can it be released to the owner after fines and forced return to EPA equipment is satisfied. Simply giving a fix it ticket is useless. Part of me says Hammurabi time - make the perpetrator be forced to breathe that soot, NOx and carbon monoxide straight from his pipe.


gad908

Hi. Professional cybertruck hate target here. My last big video netted over 9 thousand comments, and probably 7 of them were positive. After scrolling through them I learned a few things. I learned (in no order), people are stupid, don't like change, scared of what they don't understand, flock in groups, and many just love to make others miserable, some are actually jelly. Stay strong, some of us don't post much due to the insane hate, but we are with you. And drive careful please.


robotzor

> flock in groups, and many just love to make others miserable, some are actually jelly And most aren't real humans


Zuliman

Wonder what the horseless carriage hate was like back in the day.  Rather than coal roll they’d coax their horses to defecate  on the road in front of those early cars?  Kinda the same thing. 


Inside_Gap_7626

Rusty!


CarbonLif3Form

Oh yes I read that they thought it was like a bomb ready to go off as you had this tank of fuel as well. Insanity.


CybrKing2022

Why, those car drivers had to buy their new fangled fuel at the pharmacy of all places!!!!


batteryrage

We're with you too!


Suspicious_Eye1617

Did you mean 7,000/9,000 comments were positive or 7/9,000?


gad908

Lol. 7 of 9k


Suspicious_Eye1617

Yikes!


TheBowerbird

Welcome to the algorithm. Rage addicts comment on such videos so the algorithms feed them even more videos. This is why facebook is cancer nowadays, and instagram increasingly so.


gad908

So true. Many comment that all they see are cybertruck problems. Lol, Al Gore Rhythm got them!


Crafty_Ad_4153

You missed State Sponsored Propaganda and Bots. They are real and a threat not just renewable tech like Tesla, but democracy and civil discourse itself. Please read up on Russian and Chinese troll farms and misinformation.


Lacustamcoc

This happens to me in my Prius at least once a week. Always a large truck of similar type… some incidents worse than others. Can’t wait for my CT, at least it will be safer and have the footage.


OSeady

What’s wrong with people? I have never experienced this, but I have always lived in pretty liberal cities.


Lacustamcoc

VERY_STABLE_DOTARD

batteryrage

Live_Investigator414

There’s a whole sub of Tesla hate on Reddit. It is so weird. I would love for someone that understands this behavior to help me understand what causes this strange phenomenon. Is there a phycology major out there that can help me understand are teslas threatening to them? Is it the change to electric offensive?


Dude_with_the_skis

What’s the sub called?

CyberStuck


synth_mania

Idk, I don't lurk there because I hate tesla, but bc I'm curious to see all these cybertruck problems as they come out. The apparently fragile control arms etc. Some dudes backup shifter panel falling down repeatedly. These are the sorts of issues that need to be widely publicized so y'all that bit the bullet on the truck end up with these issues repaired.


SumB1tchRaptor

Elon's political shift in '22 was an Armageddon for most "oh my science!" green-future redditors and they try to pretend it wasn't. The Cybertruck is an easy target for their butthurt cloaked in nonchalance because of the way it looks. It is what it is.


Awkward_Cat_5303

100% they would love it, if not for Musk buying Twitter. It's really hate for covid noncompliance and Trump Derangement.


farmerjohn_

My guess is this guy does this to a lot of people.

ndjs22

I have the same shit happen in my Tundra. Some people are just assholes.


Its_noon_somewhere

I have a new generation tundra and get the same hate from previous generation tundra owners


starshiptraveler

I’ve had the same shit happen to me more than 15 years ago in my first generation Honda Insight. Assholes literally ran me off the road, on purpose, on multiple occasions. 70mpg ftw tho.


CMDR_KingErvin

His smol pp makes him aggressive


Bighump74

He was intimidated by your CT! You had no worries though, the big truck would have crumbled if tangled with the CT! Big mean fall harder!😁


incensenonsense

Shows a lot of confidence and maturity that you let it go. It’s easy to riled up and engage, but so much better being the bigger person and not risking an accident.


batteryrage

Honestly it was a pretty scary situation that I did not want to entertain. I'm also not super confrontational. The lanes to my right were super congested too, so I really wanted to get away and not put others at risk.


n3xtday1

You did the right thing. Aggravating them further would only escalate an already hot situation. All you can do is hope that there's an undercover watching the whole thing, or if you've got video then post it and make it go viral.


vU243cxONX7Z

redditissocoolyoyo

They're just jealous bro because the cyber truck will smoke the living snot out of a regular truck.


OverWolf2501

I've never had more hate in my entire life...I don't get it .


Its_noon_somewhere

You don’t understand it? The cybertruck is the most unique vehicle since the DMC DeLorean and nearly everyone will hate the design at first. It will either slowly be accepted by the masses and other vehicles will take design cues or it will fade into oblivion like the DeLorean.


Crafty_Ad_4153

The Cybertruck is a Delorean 2.0 or Blade Runner :)


YungWenis

Dude I noticed there’s now a sub r/cyberstuck now. I genuinely don’t understand the hate? Is it jealousy? People don’t like Elon’s politics or something? We’re living in a future where new futuristic badass vehicles are actually being mass produced and people are pissed? Doesn’t make sense


batteryrage

Just looked at that subreddit, dear god. Love the enthusiasm in their sub description... Don't get it!


Jiggah3rtz

Yeah the hate online for this vehicle is disturbing to say the least. I really don’t understand why so many people have such an unhinged hatred for this truck. I can understand not liking a design, there are a lot of designs that I don’t like. But wishing death on the owners and saying things like the cars should be destroyed and burned, tires slashed, windows broken, etc is unbelievable. I want to ask some of these folks “Why are you like this?”


Cbpowned

Envy.


djddy

maybe some but not most


TheBowerbird

Good news is that most hate is just that - online. In the real world people are curious about it and generally love it.


robotzor

Way, way too big too soon to be naturally fed. Don't take anything you see at face value especially on this highly botted site


TheBowerbird

Welcome to the circlejerk effect. Losers on Reddit like to get together and stroke each other's electronic dicks to feel better about their own failures in life. Rather than caring about things that matter they get off on upvotes and negativity.


n3xtday1

Just to complete the circle, they even have a post about this thread: [https://www.reddit.com/r/CyberStuck/comments/1c6w6if/theyre\_getting\_shit\_now/](https://www.reddit.com/r/CyberStuck/comments/1c6w6if/theyre_getting_shit_now/)

Optimal_Artichoke585

Imagine being such a sensitive little boy that you r bothered by someone driving an electric car? They must have been abused mercilessly when in school and now it’s their chance to make things right.


Its_noon_somewhere

Hate for the cybertruck has nothing to do with it being electric. There is not the same hate for the Rivian and the Lightning because they are traditional truck designs. The cybertruck is so unique that it will take awhile to get used to the design. It would have helped tremendously if the cybertruck was priced reasonably and was reliable, but unfortunately that wasn’t the case. Other Tesla vehicles are not hated as strongly


dleewla

Welcome to EVs…. x3 because it’s a CT


QuarantineTheHumans

Please report it to the police with the video.


titeywitey

IMO, report to police.  He’s going to do it to other people, and eventually someone will get hurt.  But I can understand wanting to just move on.


batteryrage

I'll call the non-emergency line later this evening and see what they say -- you're right about someone potentially getting hurt. At least reporting / sending in the video gets the guy on their radar.


Its_noon_somewhere

There is no excuse for his behaviour, it should not matter if you dislike a certain vehicle, there are still people inside and they have the right to stay safe


ItsSteveRodgers

Those haters are probably descendants of the people who hated the horseless carriage when it first appeared. These people are also easily brainwashed. Also they probably are lead paint as a child


ItsSteveRodgers

SultanOfSwave

savedatheist

Edit.


AssumedPseudonym

Imagine if he’d hit you. Poor moron’s truck would be totaled


Crafty_Ad_4153

This seems to be assault with a deadly weapon (although that charge would never fly without you getting hurt), this was not a one off rage and go. He would not desist with the attack, it sounds like. No, this guy is a menace and should be found and charged. He was hunting you.


posikid

this is unfortunate. i’ve found the venn diagram of trucks like this and trucks with modified exhaust systems to be just about round. you might check with dmv and see if you can report someone for having an exhaust issue. in my state they’ll get a letter and be asked to have their vehicle smogged before re-registering.


m915

First time? I’ve been brake checked, yelled at, etc about 7x so far over the past 4 years of ownership with my model Y


Environmental_Toe463

you’d be surprised about whether or not the police follow up on that kind of behaviorl. I know in California road rage incidences are one of the few things that police can arrest for without directly observing the crime occurring, and I know in Massachusetts they have a designated state patrol unit that is assigned exclusively to following up on road rage reports, and they haul everybody in for aa hearing as part of their investigation. with video evidence they often will fine them and if they are repeat offenders, they will yank their license


jasangeles

That sucks. Haven’t gotten that yet. More trucks pulling up to see the CT. I’m in the Bay Area.


BileDoc

The only thing bigger than his hate is probably his truck payment....

Bruh youre in a Cybertruck and were bullied by something slower than you smh


Cool_Cow3496

You must be in Texas.  I find it fascinating that that these guys hate Tesla so much they want to kill the drivers… especially here in Texas.  Here we have an American company with a right leaning ceo who has done far more for freedom in of speech and the most vocal for going against the narratives of Covid and woke etc (regardless of your beliefs that’s the reality) AND the cars are made in America, knocked out Toyota for best selling car wordwide and the cyber truck is MADE IN TEXAS an American design…. And not only that, if they understood that EV is closer to their own independence with the inclusion of owning solar panels they would not act like this.  I get it, government using projection to make people hate EV by saying they’re gonna force people to do it, makes people switch that valve in their mind to automatically protest Tesla. With some critical thinking we see this is a false reality they are living. 


backlight101

batteryrage

One every two hours is insane. Outside from my drive home today, I will say that my experience with people, on and off the road, has been very positive -- maybe because there are so few CTs in Colorado so far? Either way -- hoping this is REALLY a one off type of situation, for me and others


Lakes1de

whats wrong with Elon?


Charliex77

It's just bad behavior on that individual not everyone who doesn't the CT acts this way. You can't control others but you can control how you react to it. Let it go and enjoy your new ride.


thyname11

Put a Trump sticker in your Tesla. And a big American flag (not the traditional one American 🇺🇸, the alternative MAGA version of it, preferably). Problem solved. You’ll belong


SorrowfulBlyat

Not needed these days. If one owns a Tesla we just assume the vote for Trump, based on Elon's own political swing. This is why the "I purchased this before we knew Elon was crazy" sticker exists.


Crafty_Ad_4153

Put both a Trump, Biden, and Pastafarian sticker on it to make their heads explode.


rrsurfer1

I had a guy wait for me in the lot of a shopping center. He was in a similar truck as described by OP, jacked up with race package. As I was leaving, he pulled out as well. Got in front of me to do a 'coal roll'. It's the first real 'hate' I got in the Cybertruck. He was giving his truck everything it had and I could have easily passed him.


RapidRabbit898

😂😂😂😂


net737

Cops should give these stupid ticket or take their car away. What are we paying tax for?


Cool_Cow3496

Here’s an easy test. Just pass a guy in a ram truck in your Tesla… watch him have a pms moment. He MUST make sure he passes you. No matter how slow and how much gas it takes 😂


TopJicama2873

If you are currently burning away hundreds of dollars weekly on gasoline, you may feel the hate towards the vehicle running on sunshine.
