There is one aspect about this that is immutable: kinetic energy goes up as the square of the velocity. Other things can be addressed. Cars can be designed to be safer in crashes. Inspection standards can be set higher, so that cars are in better condition. Driver education can be better. And so forth. But physics is…

LOL, thanks Brad.
About 20 years ago I was hitching to the west coast on a summer voyage of self discovery and adventure.
I’ve told this story before, but I’m still stunned by the dealer who wanted to submit a credit check before they’d let my mom sit in a Kia Sedona.
“Finally, is it really foolish to trade it a perfectly fine car for something that is a bit more fun?”
Please make a sequel: Saudi Women’s Rally School
They are legally allowed the entire lane. I fail to see what the issue is. Besides, a good cyclist isn’t all the way over on the far edge of the shoulder. Most times, it is safest to ride near the white line.
I hope the private equity ghouls that own this place don’t read that otherwise Raph is going to get a crash course in what “other duties as assigned” means.
My gandmother had a string attached to it.
No one wants to listen to my idea that we should all be driving around in go-karts. Think of all of the lanes of traffic we could add!
I have a reverse ask- what if we sentenced their SUV’s to hard labour camps?
Got a better idea. They are not allowed to turn down anyone asking to help them move.
Don’t wait for drink service to be over to use the bathroom. Just go right in your seat like the rest of us.
“pressuring countries to abandon religious principles and cultural norms enshrined in law”
A similar letter was presented to the World Health Assembly in May and was signed by the United States, Brazil, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Haiti, Ghana, Nigeria, and Iraq.
It may be one thing to say that maybe a nearly 50 year old car should have modern safety equipment. Though you better believe if it was my hot rod — and my ass — I’d be relying on something better than a harness strap bolted to the roof with a couple of clips to hold it on the headliner.
It’s a good rule, keeps a lot of room and visibility around corners, where it’s needed.
That’s why anything that is not a Kenworth semi is useless. You never know when you’ll have to pull a 53ft of avocados home for your bi centennial guac party.
The saw analogy is perfect.
Don’t forget about TV shows/Movies. If the overlap of Game of Thrones fans and Supra fans were bigger, there would be a Change.org petition for a redesigned 2020 Model because fans named their daughters Supra 8 years ago because they were expecting the 2020 model to have a Toyota inline six and a big wing.
