I actually looked into that…!

The Google Maps interface lets you see when the street was imaged. It’s been that way since 2024, at least. A helpful Redditor shared the link to it.

I’m bad as an automotive journalist. What I lack in skill, I make up for with effort and comedic timing

I’m honestly surprised that a Tesla Model Y fit in this gap. Maybe it ran over the first bollard a bit?

Edit: And, IDK, “managed to get out appropriately” in this case would unfortunately mean throwing it in reverse and doubling back through the cross-walk, I think. It’s never a good idea to run stuff over to get where you’re going.

I drive a Chevy, can confirm, the door latches consistently work even when the power goes out (which is frequent LOL)

As a Toyota truck owner, can confirm.
