Trump can't drive due to security restrictions

newsweek.com

President Donald Trump announced he plans to buy a Tesla Model S but cannot drive it due to security restrictions. Current and former U.S. presidents are prohibited from driving on public roads for safety reasons. It is unclear if Trump has a valid driver's license, as his New York license needed renewal in June 2020. He will allow his staff to use the Tesla instead. Trump's announcement comes amid Tesla's stock price declines and criticism of Elon Musk's ties to the administration. Musk aims to double Tesla's U.S. vehicle production in the next two years.
