It’s bullet-proof in the same way Tesla self-driving is “almost ready” or a software-update that hasn’t shipped yet. Take your pick
They’re Tesla, of course they aren’t
Technically, many modern police vehicles can stop certain handgun bullets from going through the doors and hitting the occupants. The cybertruck can do this too. However, once high-powered rifles are used (and some high-powered handguns and SMGs), those bullets go right through. So, the claim is true, provided no one shoots a rifle bullet at you. Or aims for the windows… where you head is.
can I leave this here?

but they are bullet proof at 45acp… and multiple round in the exact same spot will cause a failure. They are better than nothing for sure but they need to upgrade the glass to match the doors steel rating at least.
They stop a bullet if you throw the bullet at the Cybertruck.
No problem, just drive into the water and they’re safe, right?
So the government is stepping in to help shift that vast inventory of unsold cybertrucks?
What do you mean stainless steel isn’t bulletproof??
Either the Vegas government got duped big time or they got a whole load of garbage vehicles for pennies on the dollar since Tesla can’t sell these nightmares for anything.
Could see it going either way it’s just who might be the bigger idiots, Vegas or Tesla.
It’s fucking weird that the police accept donations from billionaire technocrats of “militarized” vehicles. Like is this guy worried the common rabble is going to rise up so he’s reinforcing his local PD? The police shouldn’t need a fucking tactical cybertruck with assualt ladder lol
Is everyone aware that bullet proof vests are not bullet proof? Bullet proof just means bullet resistant up to a certain caliber. As soon as you move to rifle rounds or armor piercing. If anyone says they have something that is bullet proof I’d like to see them hide behind it with a 30mm gattling gun uprange.
That’s not the only problem. A much bigger problem is that they’re *cybertrucks*.
Vegas has a thing for Musk don’t they. CyberTrucks. Useless tunnels for Non-Mass transit which only use Teslas. Keep hearing people say tourism is down. Maybe redirect those funds to things that will change the trend.
