Honestly, this looks less likely to murder a pedestrian with a sharp-edged front, so it might actually be street legal outside the US.

There's no steering wheel or pedals - no controls at all. No mirrors or rear windshield. There's no way in hell it'll be street legal anywhere on earth.

The driver door opening for no reason might kill a cyclist though.

Maybe that was just part of the scripted demo.

I wouldn't be surprised if those doors have no sensors that would prevent that either. (I know other Tesla doors have sensors that prevent them from hitting a stationary obstacle next to them, but that's different from seeing an approaching cyclist or pedestrian.)
