And the Tesla shifter is a million times dumber than that design. You have to swipe up or down on a touchscreen to go into drive or reverse, and there isn’t a whole lot of visual indication what gear you’re in. I can totally see how someone could back up to something, do a poor job of swiping up on the screen thinking they were going into drive, and then hitting the pedal and going backwards because they’re still in reverse.
