    No he honestly thought that if he just tried hard enough his company could break even more automotive safety laws, and his lawyers have taken this long pretending to look into solutions before finally admitting they can't

      Pretty sure his lawyers all have screeds and screeds of emails backed up on personal accounts wherein they told Musk that what he's doing is illegal.

      First rule of lawyering is always cover your own ass.

        I'm pretty sure he has been working without an in house legal team for years at this point. There was a reason that he was soliciting Twitter for legal advice during the Twitter buying fiasco.

          Nah, Tesla's legal team would work for Tesla, not Musk on a personal level. That said, I totally believe the idea that Musk would be so arrogant that he thinks he doesn't need lawyers for the Twitter transaction.
