What If All Cars Were Indestructible?
Thanks to Elon Musk and Tesla the world now has a (supposedly) almost indestructible car. As Tesla has a track record of disrupting industries and set new standards, will other carmakers follow suit? Instead of falling apart after a single crash, what if all cars become completely indestructible? Would there be fewer fatalities caused by car accidents? What would indestructible cars be made of? And could it end up being a bad thing?

Then mr bean’s mini would not not get crushed by a tank and the military would sent him to jail.

I usually really enjoy your videos, but this one was way off.
Indestructible cars wouldn't have to mean that they couldn't be taken apart, so the worry about waste is not really a valid point; they could still be recycled into new cars.
Also, modern cars have crumple zones to absorb a lot of the energy from impacts.
Indestructible cars would not absorb much of the energy from impacts thus sending more of that energy to the occupants.

If you want an indestructible car, buy a 1987-1991 Toyota Camry.

Some very poorly thought out justifications for profit at the expense of safety. As long as the shell is safe you can modify in the internal components whenever there is an update. Recycling or reshaping the material would not be difficult either. Content like this harms human advancement. Keep making tin cans and plastic cars that crumble and kill millions of people every year though… They should not even be allowed on the road.

What iF : we have a nuclear powered engines of cars & Truck?
.Will they be blown away like bomb in crash?
.Will they emit any dangerous radiations for human/ Environment?
.How often they'll be Safe?
.What will they COST?
.Or even possible to make nuclear power cars & Trucks?
………….
We already have nuclear powered Aircraft carriers but they are huge.

And you're actually wrong it would be much more dangerous because the car is don't even dent which means they don't bounce either which means if you crash into a really sturdy wall at 70 mph your rib cage your neck your head and the rest of your body are going to be slamming into the indestructible steering wheel and dashboard at 70 miles an hour killing you for sure and living a pretty mess for the authorities to clean up

You know to get rid of them you can launch them into the sun if they can make a Tesla orbit the sun then we can launch indestructible cars into the sun

This can be solved if the graphene sheet you're talking about is only temporarily wrapped around the car. Not permanent. On removing that strong, hard layer , the car will become your regular one.
