It looks like everyone is waking up from their EV fever and realizing that the vehicles are still not there. There cars are to small for carrying more than one prisoner, the front is too cramped and autopilot interference and let's just say it's very vulnerable and the list goes on.
This is just another examples of politics in the making because if the police department would have done their research beforehand, they would have realized that the vehicles are useless.
This is another public relations stunt in a time where public safety should be the priority.
