A Tesla Cybertruck sinks in a Southern California harbor

Elon Musk tweeted in 2022 that the Cybertruck "will be waterproof enough to serve briefly as a boat." But a Cybertruck did not float in Ventura Harbor.

How exactly do you "accidentally" go into reverse?

"The driver told Shevitz that he meant to put the vehicle in drive after launching a Jet Ski but accidentally threw it in reverse, causing it to slide down the ramp and into the water. " #cybertruck #tesla #accident

@ai6yr Have you driven a Tesla? It's surprisingly easy. In fact, it will put itself into reverse if it senses that's what you want to do...
@sfoskett Oh my. Indeterminate driving direction, LOL. It's a gamble! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4K3NE_MNMQ

@ai6yr @sfoskett "It went straight into that ditch! Then it reversed! Then it did it again! Then it reversed again!"

"How long has this been going on?"

"Twenty minutes, at least."

"The driver can't get out?"

"He keeps screaming at the dashboard something about not missing a payment."

"Once disagreed with Elon on social media?"

"I guess."
