From Tesmanian.com….
On April 1st, 2015, Tesla introduced Ticket Avoidance Mode for Model S owners.
“No more parking tickets for Model S owners. Today we’re introducing: ticket-avoidance-mode. Watch how it works.”
In a short video, the company demonstrated how it works. The policeman, who saw that the Model S was parked in a prohibited place, issued a fine, but when he tried to put it under the wiper, the car sprayed it with a washer and then began to slowly drive away. Of course, it was an April Fool’s joke—forecasting a sense of humor we have since come to expect in the company and CEO Elon Musk.
