And what's the bias of the website with "Tesla" in it's name?

I think we are all fortunate that teslarati.com is not a government agency :D

So they appointed a person who cares about safety to be a safety advisor? How dare they.

Here are some quotes from the article for you. The concern is not that she cares about safety, but that she is very strongly biased against Tesla and has a financial interest in promoting other companies.

"The same goes for her stance regarding CEO Elon Musk. In March 2020, for example, Dr. Cummings seemingly joked about needing someone to stop her from punching Elon Musk in the face. "

"It should be noted that Dr. Cummings’ seat at Veoneer was not disclosed when she published a paper (which was later updated to remove inaccurate details about a fatal Tesla crash) criticizing systems such as Autopilot for their possible dangers. And so far, the incoming NHTSA senior safety adviser has not shared if she would be leaving her post at the Swedish LIDAR company, especially since she would soon be advising a US safety agency on driver-assist systems that adopt both LIDAR and non-LIDAR solutions. "

"Missy Cummings receives around $400,000 worth of stock in Swedish LIDAR company Veoneer per year as compensation for her role as a non-employee member of the board."

> has not shared if she would be leaving her post

Kinda looks like she did:

If I go looking about articles related to the Biden administration and Tesla, I mostly see articles about Musk complaining the Biden administration was ignoring them. That's not what I'd expect if they were "bitterly anti Tesla".

After all the money the federal government gave Tesla and everything now they treat them like this, it just doesn't make sense!
