It's gotten to the point that whenever people see Teslas, they automatically start laughing.

Tesla also seems to have taken over the "douchebag driver" stereotype that used to be reserved for BMW's and Mercedeses.

There are a lot of roundabouts where i live and when i see a tesla, he's either not using his turn signal or is on the phone or somehow very often both. Tesla people seem to be on their phone more often than other people in the road. Which is even weirder, because they all have that elaborate electronics on board, no?

I live in the city and only really ever see them parked over the curb or in the sidewalk in front of a No Parking sign. At this point I'm honestly not even sure they're capable of parallel parking.

I die inside whenever I call an Uber and a Tesla pulls up.
