Yes. Please be careful in some areas, as there is non-zero risk of armed looters.
Cybertruck side panels are bulletproof to subsonic projectiles (handguns, shotgun & Tommy gun), but the glass is not, so make sure to duck if you see anyone wielding a gun.
This is not fiction. https://t.co/pISxsxLLj6
