People assess risks differently based on what the results could be. Burning to death trapped in a car is pretty high on the “avoid this” list, and americans likely are asking “if I get hit by a Tesla who do I sue?” If the answer is Tesla then thats a much higher risk than if its the person in the drivers seat.

Its about ehat types of mistakes can happen and how they are handled. Many prefer gas automobiles as they consider them less risky.
