We’d be lucky if Hui’s life was worthy of 30 hours of community service, if Chris were driving a car when he hit him.

Chris got a harsher sentence than most drivers who kill peds or cyclists. Like, harsher than the vast, VAST, VAST MAJORITY of drivers who kill.

It's what's in the Lexus parts book, and was common when these were new.

The parking brake would do less than the brake pedal for stopping a car with a failed brake booster. They probably don’t call it an emergency brake, to prevent people from doing stupid-ass things like using the parking brake in the event of a brake booster failure.

The Lexus’ Owner’s Manual calls it a parking brake. You probably won’t find any car with an “eMERgenCY brAKE” made in the past 20 years.

Big Boy tractive effort: 135,375 lbf 

Ah yes, an article that will pull in every reader who has taken “fucking-dumbass pills” today to angrily type about how much they love sitting in gridlocked traffic.

I think authors think it is somehow more creepy if she were his adopted daughter. It’s a shade less creepy, but a lot more asshole, how it actually happened. Either way, it needs no embellishment to get the point across that Allen is a real jerk.

We get it. Woody Allen is a creepy weirdo.

This is cool and all, but remember how awesome all the cars in the 2003 movie The Rundown were?

“people who were butt-fisted”

You mean, Ridiculously Rad, surely?

What’s the motive?
