Not to beat on the Cybertruck, or to criticize your choice, but if the

or a retired teacher steps off the sidewalk into your path, either one is
going to be worse off for your CT than if you were driving a Model 3 or a
Nissan Leaf at that instant.
I can't remember which type of false argument that is. Strawman possibly?
For one thing, ANY vehicle that is a lot larger than whatever it hits IS
going to do more damage to whatever it hits.
So, for your pedestrian example - pretty much ANY vehicle hitting them
is a likely major injury/death event.
On the other hand, my CyberTruck is likely to SEE the pedestrian and
automatically apply brakes, unlike the vast majority of non-Tesla vehicles.
Just tonight, it noticed a Raccoon crossing the road and slowed down to
avoid it.
