I like the last idea - Teslas to senators - but, I believe, it violates
the gifts ethics rules. Oh, well. It would be effective.

Completely agree. But, cost prohibitive. Perhaps relatively few cars
sequenced through the population.
In another discussion forum, I've proposed that the 25 district highway
engineers in Texas be given or given access to Teslas. Those 25 people
independently control much of the nitty gritty of highway design and
maintenance in different geographical areas. That, in an educational
effort to drive home the need for intelligent and uniform lane markings
which would make the AutoPilot job easier. I fully recognize the risk
of bribery charges.
For general EV promotion, Teslas given to all US Senators and
Representatives would go a long way. With Tesla's current size, the
cost of a thousand or so cars would be trivial. And probably cheaper
than their current lobby cost.
