That billionaire just dropped a bombshell: his EV company rolled out software letting drivers text behind the wheel. Here's the kicker—this feature clashes with traffic laws across most US states. Innovation pushing boundaries, or a legal minefield waiting to explode? The tech enables hands-free messaging while driving, but regulators might have other plans. Classic move: build it first, ask permission later.

Wouldn't it be better to consult the legal department before launching a feature? Doing it this way is bound to backfire sooner or later.

Here we go again? Get on board first and buy the ticket later; the fine doesn't hurt anyway.

Let me ask a question first: can it really be completely hands-free? Or is it just another bunch of marketing talk?

Here we go again? The trick of building first and getting approval later has been played countless times. Just look at the flow of funds and you’ll see the cost of violations was calculated in advance. Regulatory fines are nothing but a drop in the bucket for backers of this scale—the real leverage is in public opinion.

Ask for permission first, or get fined first? This guy chose the latter—a classic regulatory arbitrage approach. Let's wait and see how it backfires on him.

ngl this guy just wants to stir things up. Using your phone while driving is already dangerous, and he insists on adding another feature... truly unbelievable.

Surgery first, medication later—same old routine.

Let me ask a question first: Is this really safe for texting while driving, or is it just another "our technology is awesome, laws don't matter" gimmick?

Let me ask a question first: Can the regulators really keep up with these people's wild ideas?
