MarketWatch Opinion: "It’s time for Elon Musk to start telling the truth about autonomous driving" on 5/28/21

Tesla is it's own worst enemy, just as US regulatory agencies come under new, more motivated management:

Vicki Bryan, CEO of Bond Angle, says she expects heightened regulatory scrutiny of Tesla and its claims under the new Biden administration. She noted that under the Trump administration, the NHTSA was practically gutted, resulting in toothless enforcement.

“We have a new sheriff in town,” Bryan said. “California is one thing, and California will be working in concert with enhanced federal scrutiny.”

…“Tesla is its own worst enemy,” said Bryan, the bond analyst who focuses on high-yield distressed companies. “It should be a national treasure. … But half the battle is because it is badly managed. We have a bad autocratic manager, who nobody says no to.”
