Yes, they do kill people on the roads, which is why this guy was taking the subway. Would it have been better if he just drove? He wouldn’t have fallen down the hole then.

Like it was said by an engineer in a different thread, the system designers have to plan for something like this to happen. Something that extends with enough force to crush someone should, at the very least, have an emergency shut off switch. Of course the transit system is liable. They’re the ones that allowed…

In Calgary, Alberta, Canada where I live the LRT platforms have only an inch or two gap. Definitely small enough to roll a wheel chair over with no issues.

There’s the thing. Everyone has a different definition of reasonable. To the judge that awarded this, $10 million is reasonable. You want to complain about outrageous payment? Go become a judge.

I check the power report on my computer’s battery backup. Tells me exactly how long the power was out for and the exact times it went out and came back.

My method is simpler. I just check the power report on my computer’s battery backup. Tells me exactly how long the power was out for and the exact times it went out and came back.

Why would they not just transport that down the rail lines?

That may be the case where you live but not where I live. All vehicles, and bicycles are legally a vehicle, MUST stop at a red light and wait. None of the lights where are live are pure sensor. They all cycle on a timer as well.

You kick my car and I’m getting the police involved. One bad action doesn’t beget another. You shouldn’t respond to somebody’s mistake with attempting to damage their property.

Boo fucking hoo. You don’t get a free pass to break the law just because it saves you some effort. One of these days you’ll blow through a stop sign thinking it’s clear and get creamed by a car.

so some of them make no sense applied with 100% accuracy.

Fuck, this morning on my drive into work in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, I saw a cyclist blow a red light and cross the LRT tracks while the flashing lights were going. This type of thing is a common sight. Cyclist here are assholes.

If governments want to institute an autonomous car only law then they can buy me a new fucking car.

Okay. You believe that. Have fun paying hundreds of thousands of dollars when your insurance decides not to cover something.

Like I said, my mother’s wait was mostly because she had to arrange the time off with her employer. Had she not had that restriction, she could have had it done in a couple of weeks.

In a perfect world the whole “snitches get stitches” and “tattletale” ideas wouldn’t exist. Also, I’m obviously not advocating going to your manager over every little thing. You’re supposed to be an adult, for fuck’s sake. Deal with some of this shit yourself. But if something is occurring that you don’t have the…

Dude, I can get appointment same day with my doctor. The long wait time shit you heard about with the Canadian health care system is largely false. My mother got her hip replaced last year and from initial referral to on the table was like, two months and most of the wait is because she had to arrange the sick leave…

It’s a messy case, to be sure. Personally, I don’t like the idea of woman gets way too drunk and suddenly it’s rape. What ever happened to personal responsibility? Maybe people shouldn’t get so wasted that they can’t make proper decisions.

Haha! Sucks to be you! I’m Canadian and have universal health coverage. I get sick or get into an accident and I get fixed for free :P
