It's not "easy". Many vehicles are delivered directly to buyers by third party delivery

Especially in states where direct sales aren't allowed.
If every vehicle required a 30 minute class, that'd be 40,000 additional employee hours a year at a minimum Lower if just US deliveries require a class, lower if only Auto Pilot enabled vehicles require the class. Higher when Model 3 starts to ship..
But buyers who take delivery at a Tesla Showroom or Service Center do get a walkthrough of their vehicle. With plenty of opportunity to ask questions. Test drives can also be arranged.
The article is basically handwaving freakoutery over a single incident that is driver error. The driver in question being EXTREMELY familiar with the car and its capabilities. He was known for his Model S videos.
And I object to giving drivers a pass on having to read the damn manual. If you can't self-educate with the materials provided, you probably shouldn't be driving anything.
