Tahoe Police Roast Ignorant Cybertruck Driver

Apparently, these Musk-Monstrosity's have a feature called Wade Mode that allows the vehicle to 'navigate shallow bodies of water' by raising the ride height and pressurizing the battery pack to keep it safe from water. This, however, does not look like a shallow body of water and I'm genuinely so curious what on earth the driver was doing. 

Normally, California Highway Patrol Truckee is tasked with reminding people that 2WD is not 4WD in snow storms, and that just because you want to drive through that snowstorm to ski pow, doesn't mean you should drive through it. But with the onslaught of drivable dumpsters in ski towns, they're now apparently tasked with reminding folks that just because your "truck" says it has auto-pilot, doesn't mean you should trust it. Haven't these folks ever seen A Space Odyssey?? 

I'd like to applaud Truckee CHP not just for posting this, but for the hashtags they came up with that had me giggling a little too hard. #CyberStuck, #WadeTooFar, #NotSoAmphibious, and my personal favorite, #SiriCallAWinch. Ha. 

Does any of this have to do with skiing? Not exactly, but if you've lived in a ski town in the last two years, you know that the roasts we used to reserve for rental car sedans without snow tires have now been directed almost entirely towards Cybertrucks.

I'm all for saving the environment with electric vehicles, but at least Ford and Rivian are doing it with cars that actually look like cars, and I haven't seen any F150E's parked in a lake recently either...
