Are the laws or requirements that force manufacturers to use dealerships? If so, how is Tesla not following those rules?

I bought my last two cars online exclusively. I still had to go pick one of them up at the dealership and the other (my first BMW) was delivered to my house by the dealership but everything was done online. so they could do that. Although I suspect most people want to see and try the car out first if possible. You can only do that at a dealership i guess.
