Gigafactory Grünheide: After recent shuttle bus chaos: Security forces are to protect Tesla employees and bus drivers

Tesla has deployed security personnel on shuttle lines to its Gigafactory in Grünheide, following reports of overcrowding and incidents. The security personnel will ride on buses for several weeks to protect employees and drivers. The move comes after employees reported issues with overcrowding and aggressive behavior on the shuttle buses in early September. Tesla has also added an extra bus on one of the lines and hired two more drivers, and is revamping its shuttle system around the new Fangschleuse train station.
