One simply called out his lie about the attack on the car. He didn't even file a police report.

If you were attacked by someone and got a clear picture of their license plate, would you:

a) report it to the police, who have direct access to vehicle registrations and can easily find the perpetrator

or

b) post on Twitter asking random people if they recognize a person's face or license plate?

I'd wager asking a bajillion followers will have more success than the police.


The police can get precise information in a click of a button.


Well it would add some credibility to a man who has burnt up his benefit of the doubt quota.


Did you really make an account just to spam low-effort comments in Elon's favor in the comments of this article?

Has his recent behavior been that defensible?


Given that the police is mostly a hassle and pretty useless otherwise, especially when you are part of the uberrich, I am not surprised. Why spend valuable time at the precinct trying to make a high-school-dropout in uniform understand what they are supposed to do if you can just hire private security?


When you are spinning up lawsuits (allegedly) to sue induviduals around an indident that occured (allegedly) - it makes your case, that these induviduals were party to a crime, much stronger if you have at least a police report, statements etc of the crime in question.
