The health-care costs would be paid by the party responsible for the accident - most often a car driver and his insurance.

I don’t see how they can possibly be doing the job right for that amount of money and in that amount of time. Everybody knows work like this should take  at least 2 years and cost $200 million (not including generous overruns).

I just priced out the insurance for a Livewire, it is cheaper than my 2019 CB1000R which has an MSRP at about 1/3 the cost. $323 a year with Geico, max coverage.  Insurance is peanuts on this thing.

Definitely. Let them dump it into the water.

As for the Corvette, expect it to appear on Craigslist soon with a technically correct “RAN WHEN PARKED” description.

Congratulations on finding a 2016 New York Times article which has been discussed here by your predecessors!

I wanted this thing so bad when I saw it as a teen.  

Ding ding ding!

Now before I get started, I’d like to clarify that I absolutely agree with the core message here. Red-light runners are scum. To see a light that’s already red long before deciding not to slow down and blast through it makes a person reprehensible, helplessly selfish, and better off nonexistent.

Honestly, how many times have I scoffed at the 2nd Amendment crowd when they said, “If we ban guns, what’s next? Ban knives?!?”

Well said. I once was a teacher. Took kids to D.C. and always toured the holocaust museum. When you leave the museum, you see this quote from General Eisenhower:

Absolutely. And to people who think it couldn’t happen here, in this day and age, we may say: it happened then and there, and thinking ourselves better could be a dangerous act of hubris.

^ this, more than anything. When i was in high school (early 00s) and read about people thinking The Holocaust was a myth or made up, I immediately laughed at them for being stupid and blind. Today, though - with Deep Fake this and photoshopped that, coupled with the internet’s ability to make just about anything seem…

Imagine selling these in the States for off-road use only. It’d be awesome. 

This thing is absolutely blyatiful!

If you live in Manhattan you’re probably a fucking idiot.

The UK is straight up not a free country.  People are jailed for offensive humor and media is screened by literal thought police.   Apt for the land of orwell.

Humans can walk at a pace of about 3mph. Assuming you are a human and not a sloth, you could have walked there in less than 10min.
