Add to the fact that the cybertruck doesn’t have crumple zones, which are a basic safety feature in practically all cars and trucks made since the 2000s.
If that thing hits you as a pedestrian or if you’re in a car, you will lose. Only having your own car crumple to absorb the impact will do little to dissuade the 7000 lb behemoth barreling towards you, either in a frontal collision or worse, a driver side impact.

Man just posts straight misinformation to the internet, how could he.
There are videos online clearly showing the front crumpling in a crash test.
The main danger to pedestrians over other such trucks is the sharp edges.
The danger to other cars is the same age old problem with SUVs amplified by current battery density.
Doesn’t have crumple zones? How does this thing possibly meet safety standards?
Normally pickup trucks and SUVs in the USA are considered “light trucks” which have easier safety and emissions standards.
I don’t really know the ins and outs if it though, I just watch videos on the internet.
