So in other words: let's completely offset the energy savings of having people use public transit, by dumping a crapload of energy into keeping the pavement warm.

I love how he thinks the "MISTAKE" was re-tweeting. The "MISTAKE" was posing for the photo in the first place, looking away from the road while driving, posing for a photo about driving and drinking...numbnuts.

"Everything I own is rare"

Please tell me that video (and your post) is a joke. The RX8 has an oil injection system.

The car was already pretty destroyed, and nobody's life or other property was at risk.

When the video started, the fire was too involved for anything other than professional gear; car fires can be difficult even with a big hose line like that. Good town/city departments have aqueous foam mixers; some don't bother because typically by the time they arrive, the car's destroyed anyway, and really, it's…

Most of the bottles you see people with in their cars are nearly useless because they're so small.

Man oh man, I was hoping for some serious takedown shit after he attacked the car in front of the other guys. Yeah, sometimes you need to de-escalate...and sometimes someone really needs to make out with some pavement for a minute or two to help calm them down.

I've seen a 959 in person, and it's basically a 911, only slathered in bad early 90's plastic - like a 911 and a Gen-1 Ford Taurus had babies.

Oh, wait. Nix the crap I said about fuel and hazardous waste...I forgot the Karma is a hybrid, not an all-electric. Bleh. My bad.

Awesome idea. It's not like it's a big deal to do emissions testing, recertification with crash tests, retraining, deal with the huge uptick in maintenance and repair requirements from customers, additional hazardous waste disposal (and combustible fuel) at the dealers/service stations (remember, companies like Fisker…

Sooooo the cover photo for the story shows exactly the wrong way to do it, then, right?

Because LED?

European specifications to be announced in first half of 2014

Hunters don't kill the *innocent* animals - they look for the shifty-eyed ones that are probably the criminal element of their species!

I cannot believe that a Gawker networks site has the audacity to post a "how to use images properly online" guide. It's like getting legal advice from a methhead in county lockup.

After three hours of being on the tarmac, the airline was required to bring the plane to disembark the passengers - not bring them pizzas.

Protip: people on the internet aren't nearly as stupid as you think they are. I wasn't suggesting "slurpee legislation." I was suggesting legislation that holds people more accountable for idiotic/forseeably-dangerous things they do behind the wheel of a car.

All I see is a lot of noise, blinking lights, torque steer, and useless on/off power. The camera shots show it's pretty pathetic at accelerating at highway speeds - same at the dragstrip.

Anyone who is older than 6 knows about brain freeze, and someone 18 or older certainly does. It is negligent to consume a slushee while driving, since you know it could cause 'brainfreeze'.
