Do gas pumps have the same kind of problem which causes you to spend hours refuelling your vehicle instead of minutes? Last I checked, they didn't.

I agree. I think we are all talking about situations where the slow chargers are available, but people don't have the common sense to realize they should deliberately choose those and that all the chargers aren't the same.

If a slower charger is available, and it doesn't affect you to use that charger, then common sense and common courtesy would dictate you use that charger. If that doesn't make sense to you, and you consider that "bending around everyone else's needs," then you're just an asshole.

It isn’t “EV drivers.” It’s people in general. 

Are you sure you want people to move the one thing potentially keeping all of your bodily fluids from gushing out of whatever traumatic injury is under there BEFORE the paramedics arrive? Because when you are squished by something, that something is often times the only thing keeping your inside bits on the inside.

I’m... not angry about this? The average person is an inconsiderate moron. This reminds me of the time I had to yell at someone at the gas station. All the pumps were taken except for one pair of pumps on one side... and I was behind another vehicle and they pulled up and stopped at the FIRST PUMP without pulling…

Probably when I was fresh out of college, living in Virginia, and had my first in-person interview for the only job offer I had received scheduled for Monday morning 650 miles away in Chicago. I rented a Ford Taurus on Saturday evening with a plan to leave early Sunday morning. It was snowing that night and it wasn’t…

That is FAR from a troll statement...

The biggest disappointment for me is the resolution. I realize hardware is still catching up, and you can’t expect craziness at this price point, but this resolution is a minor improvement over my Quest 2. Eliminate the screen door and I’ll be VERY willing to upgrade, but until that happens, I’ll just stick with my…

That’s because people can update their listing, and often times will change a listing from one thing to something else to “keep” all of the positive reviews. IMHO that’s a huge loophole that definitely needs to be addressed.

I mean, you're entitled to your opinion, but literally nobody worth listening to in the automotive landscape would agree with that horrible take, lol.

You sound like you’ve never driven EITHER of the vehicles you’re talking about in your comment, lol.

Welcome to America: where it takes a "high speed" train 3 hours and 30 minutes to complete a journey that can be done by car in 3 hours and 15 minutes.

True, but that car wasn't approaching the crossroad at anywhere close to the usual speed. That's the red flag that we train our drivers to watch for.

Agree. It could have been worse too! My only point here is seeing the brake lights come on pretty much at the moment of the collision just makes you wonder if the driver saw the vehicle and just figured the best option was to continue on, or if they didn't. I'm just saying these are questions that are food for…

To be clear, this isn't meant as a shit post. I just know how these conversations always go. People always emphatically believe there is ONE person at fault, and ONE person who did everything perfectly and who shouldn't share even 1% of the blame. Hence my "just to start an argument" disclaimer since I know full well…

Maybe, except that is not what any CDL license holder is taught to assume, and it’s not something anyone should ever assume, CDL or not. Especially when a vehicle approaches the intersection that quickly, and also doesn’t stop at the first stop sign. Defensive Driving 101: don’t assume the other driver is going to not…

Just to start an argument: I checked this intersection out in Google Maps. Note there is a relatively clear line of sight (at least at the time this photo was taken in 2022) for a little ways leading up to the intersection. I am NOT saying the truck was wholly to blame for this collision. However, as someone who holds…

I actually went through the trouble of logging in on my phone just to leave a comment saying that the headline of this article is fucking stupid given what actually transpired. Fuck ALL the way off with this clickbaitey bullshit.

I bought a silicone mat for out cat’s food bowl. it came inside of an amazon box, inside of another box surrounded by plastic bubble wrap, inside of which it was in a plastic pouch with a nylon drawstring, inside of which it was wrapped in cellophane. It was a ridiculous amount of waste for something so basic.
