Are they actually allowed to sell these pieces of shit elsewhere?
Also is anyone else stupid enough to buy one?
People knowingly buy stupid vehicles. I'm one of them. It's expensive to drive, big, has expensive insurance and only seats two but I love it.
People shouldnt knowingly buy dangerous vehicles.
They likely didn’t know they were dangerous when they preordered and many are now stuck with them. I think they have a no resale contract for 2 years after buying.
I mean I don't mean to sound ridiculous, but they even looked dangerous. I am not sure why anyone would assume they were safe. I didn't even think they were street legal at first.
That is a bummer to be stuck with one though, but you do have to be rich enough to buy one too.
