In Texas, a man was arrested for driving a Tesla Cybertruck into Grapevine Lake while testing the vehicle's “Wade Mode” that was meant to be able to cope with shallow water situations.
According to police officials, the vehicle reportedly got into the lake at the boat ramp of Katie's Woods Park at about 8pm, after which it stopped working and began to take in water. While everyone inside was able to evacuate safely from the vehicle, the driver himself was arrested and faced several charges.
