Unfortunately, Tesla resale values have also plummeted, so even if people wanted to sell them desperately it may not be a financially sensible decision.

Personally, as a Tesla owner I'm concerned that if my car gets totalled I'll get pretty lowballed on the insurance settlement.

The kinda obvious answer there is to use your insurance settlement to buy another highly-depreciated Tesla. Insurance settlements are intended to let you get a comparable replacement as determined by market value. (The alternative is that if your Tesla gets totalled, it's a get-out-of-jail-free card to get a non-Tesla.)
