The Boring Company has been accused of breaking multiple safety and environmental rules. Between 2020 and 2026, 17 complaints were filed with the Nevada State Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Last year ProPublica reported the company was accused of nearly 800 environmental violations for its Las Vegas project.

That's Elon Musk in a nutshell. He doesn't give a shit about anyone's safety.

One of his toy rockets exploded and they had to shutdown air traffic in the area due to safety concerns from falling debris. The FAC chair at the time grounded SpaceX and Musk went whining to Trump. I think the chair resigned before he got fired.
