Polishing a Cybertruck might not be the safest idea, but it’s not illegal, traffic experts say [Video]

Having a Cybertruck with a mirrored body may not be the safest idea, but it’s not illegal, highway safety experts and a traffic court attorney told Business Insider.

In May, Tyson Garvin went viral on social media for polishing his Tesla Cybertruck to have a mirrorlike exterior.

Garvin told BI that he felt the polishing job was not only an aesthetic improvement but also a practical upgrade. He said the new look helped with the common issue of fingerprint stains on the vehicle’s stainless steel exterior.

But is it safe?

Social media users reacting to Garvin’s customization raised concerns that the car could be a road safety hazard if the truck’s exterior reflected headlights back at drivers — and if the vehicle blends in with its environment on the road as well as it appears to in photos.
