At consumer's expense? Nobody is forced to buy a Tesla, people do it because they like having a car more than money.

You can argue that Tesla in particular is successful off the back of the taxpayer; are you advocating against government incentives for electric vehicles?

We're forced to share the road with them. Because Teslas are glass cannons with easily damaged body panels and a closed repair network that has extraordinary prices, their presence on the roads has a real impact on all of us.

Who knows what costs we'll be exposed to as their somewhat suicidal 'self driving' functionality becomes exposed to more of the buysers they sold it to on the back of improbable promises (such as "your car will eventually pay for itself by acting as an antonymous taxi").
