Cybertruck stopped by police in Bavaria
Original: # electrek : " Cybertruck driver stopped in Germany, ‘Monster truck’ not allowed on roads " ".. vehicle is generally not
A Swedish driver was stopped while driving a Tesla Cybertruck through Bavaria, near Vaterstetten, Germany. German authorities do not allow the vehicle on public roads because it is generally not legal under European vehicle regulations, with critics describing it as closer to a monster truck than a regular car. The incident highlights the ongoing gap between the Cybertruck's US approval and its lack of certification in Europe.
Why now: The Cybertruck is not street-legal in Europe, and this rare real-world stop puts that conflict in the spotlight
