The UK system wasn’t designed for a world where the registered keeper wants to absorb unlimited convictions without meaningful consequence.

Enter Tesla, which obviously treats a £1,000 privacy fine when speeding dangerously as a privilege tax, or even a marketing event to promote the brand. If you lease the Swasticar through Tesla Financial Services and are recorded speeding, the company absorbs the fine and you do it again and again and again. That’s clearly worth something to drivers who would otherwise face points accumulation and potential disqualification.

Tesla has targeted (or created) a structural loophole where corporate liability substitutes for individual accountability. It blows right past a system that assumes registered keepers would identify drivers in order to avoid consequences.

To be fair, Tesla told the courts that they blame websites and “2nd class post” for their failure to respond. Maybe Elon Musk soon will propose replacing British Mail with his robots. Yes, eighteen cases and multiple police forces, all lost in the mail. Is it a stunt to propose privatizing post to be… opened and inspected by xAI for political interference and “intelligence” monetization? But I digress.

The £20,686 fine against Tesla averages roughly £1,150 per incident. One driver was clocked at 100mph on public roads. Another accumulated enough speeding offenses for license disqualification. Tesla enabled and then shielded these criminal drivers, without consequences, and pled guilty.

Expect it in the next marketing campaign. The Swasticar delivers.
