I get that the average Mercedes-Maybach S600 buyer doesn’t drop almost $200,000 on a sedan because it is significantly faster than the S550, but rather does so simply because it is more expensive and therefore better.

“Experienced lawyers don’t say shit like that to a judge unless they can back it up.”

Off topic: Am I the only one that’s annoyed with a self driving diesel truck being called Otto?

Counterpoint: Wrenching on my e46 is very simple. I just replaced the entire cooling system and it was not difficult and not expensive.

Jemaine Clement is striking me as a real weirdo and I love it.

Damn! Automotive News has hacked into Jalopnik and is pissing all over anything travel related!

Not getting the racist part. Not in a “I see how it could be offensive but I disagree with your opinion so I’m being willfully ignorant” kind of way but in a “I genuinely don’t understand the comment and hope someone will explain” kind of way. Whenever this happens I never know how to ask for clarification without…

Pretty sure that if you’re driving you need to have your licence with you, at least that’s the rule here in MN.

Starred for “Potato Boys” and “Pittsburgh” (I dig PGH!).

21 mpg? I just bought a 1999 BMW 740i and I get 21 mpg all day long. I see your driving mostly city and I’m mostly highway, but still. 21 is bad these days.

Damn impressive. Mustangs can only crash once. Corvettes can crash multiple times. Scary. Kinda like hornets. They can sting multiple times.

were you like... never a kid? i’m pretty sure every kid is legally required to know the fastest bird on the planet.

Googling “uber lies” returns 12,900,000 results.

Yeah well, if those cars work on Pittsburgh’s streets they can work anywhere.

I love that Pittsburgh has stepped up and taken the lead in this segment’s development. All of the key players are active here in developing driverless technology, with Ford’s recent infusion of more than $1B into Pittsburgh-based Argo AI, Uber’s driverless tech program being based here as well as Google’s. Great…

Absolutely idiotic...... Uber is a goddamn business, it aint the welfare office. You are shocked that a company founded BY WHITE GUYS has a majority white leadership? Over 50% of the tech people are POC. Oh, sorry, I forgot-asians dont count when they are successful, only when you can fold them into your “POC VICTIM…

It’s Uber and Mr. Felton’s sole aim in life seems to be to pour shit on them.

I read in another article about this that no one was hurt. I mean, he was in a Volvo after all.

That is a terrible solution, as it will require doubling our infrastructure. I’m all for autonomous cars, but if they can’t share the road with humans, they are not ready.
