Safety Score V2 is here 📷
While some details of the Safety Score v2 were previously known, we now have a screenshot directly from the app showing some new factors taken into account:

• Excessive Speeding: This measures the proportion of the trip during which the speed exceeded 85 mph.
• Late Night Driving: This counts driving done between 10 pm and 4 am.
• Unbuckled Driving: This only takes into account instances when the car exceeds 10 mph.

Tesla Roadster production "hopefully" starts in 2024
At the annual shareholders' meeting, Elon stated that the company's eagerly anticipated second-generation Roadster is "hopefully" set to begin production in 2024. The Roadster, first unveiled in 2017, was initially slated for production in 2020, but this timeline was delayed multiple times. I bet those of you with reservations, or those who secured one through the referral program, must be eagerly awaiting this moment!

Tesla Bot Update 📹
Tesla has just shared a video of the Tesla Bot walking around and learning about the real world. It's truly impressive to see the progress Tesla has made from the announcement, where they initially had a person in a costume, to this current video. 🤖

• This system is more efficient than resistive heaters.
