Even at high speed, this was probably survivable; right up to the point where the vehicle caught fire and the passengers couldn’t get out.

I suggested this to Mrs. Montgomery one time.

It’s Cellular Vehicle to x; because there is both Vehicle to Infrastructure and Vehicle to Vehicle.

Or, less charitably, that’s where the dirt that ‘buried’ the sides of the Fiat came from; because it really looked like somebody mounded up around the sills.

In defense of the Michigan Left, here’s the intersection of W. Outer Drive and the Fairlane Green shopping complex entrance in Allen Park, MI:

Here’s the interesting point - there’s only one locks that can accommodate the biggest boats. It dates back to 1896, and was rebuilt in 1968. The other was built in 1943. A new 1200' lock is being built; but it won’t be finished until 2030. The project was originally approved in 1986, but groundbreaking wasn’t until…

The Soo connects Lake Superior with the the rest of the Great Lakes; so it’s not the limiting factor for lakers to get out to the ocean; that’s the Wellend Canal, as Goose points out. Lake freighters have to pass through the Soo, especially taconite boats, or they’re no good to get iron ore from Minnesota to Detroit.

One clarification - the waters of the Great Lakes extend the US/Canada border, under the theory you could sail from Lake Huron through the Mackinac straits and land in Chicago, or the Dells.

There are, FMVSS 102 Transmission shift position sequence, starter interlock, and transmission braking effect.

For me, this is like every other ultra-low, triple digit mileage car that shows up here, BaT, or the auto auctions: No Dice, and it doesn’t matter what car.

Some cities put in traffic light control systems that allow emergency vehicles to override the light timing; and that’s the receiver for the IR based system.

Have you heard the story of the hot rod race, where the Fords and the Lincolns were setting the pace?

5th Gear:

Memory recall seats. If you have more drivers than cars in your house, being able to get your seat position back without a lot of fussing is a huge deal. I didn’t really notice how nice this feature was until I went from a car that had it to one that didn’t.

I’m wondering if the amber lamps in the grill, and those high mounted amber lamps in the back are dedicated flashers.

There’s actually a couple of reasons behind electric park brakes.

It has nothing to do with the door, buoyancy, hypothermia; but only one simple fact:

Perhaps something like SAE’s J3161 C-V2X Standard or IEEE’s 802.11p standard for WLAN-based V2X?

You’re driving down an interstate at night, with a Styrofoam cooler in the back. You hit a bump, the cooler starts squeaking, and you’re miles from the next exit.

Once again, I need to point out that the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is regulatory:
