We were on the Go Train coming back from some event. We were sitting in the accessibility coach with my Mother-in-Law and her walker.

Just another reason why they want you to home school your children.

Why shouldn’t work trucks have to pass the same safety standards as passenger vehicles.  You probably spend more time in a work vehicle than your personal vehicle.  Are people working worth less than people on their free time?

When I was young, it wasn’t a problem. I have a driving vacation coming up and I’ve planned hotels about 6 hours apart.

I know that it was a completely fake story about Vance and the couch.

Impound the vehicle.

Unfortunately, it looks like Project 2025 has filled this gap.

There is a dip all across the road in front my house from a culvert. It drops the speed on the road by about 20 mph to get through it.

It’s like that Bob Newhart quote:

I’m currently at the second International Road Safety Conference in Orlando. While trucks specifically haven’t been brought up, the focus is increasingly becoming that a user making a mistake shouldn’t be a death sentence.

The last time the agent asked me if I wanted a dongle like that I told them “The cheapskate in my likes it, but the Libertarian in me says ‘Hell No’”

That is my problem with the telematics.  There was no science behind the acceleration or braking rates.  It was just a randomly generated threshold that was picked.

I always thought that Segal movie was ‘Marked for Acting Lessons’

Last weekend in Toronto.

I see a lot of people forget that.  You might have the right to do (or not do) something.  You also get to suffer the consequences from that decision.

I had a 1987 Dodge Omni with the 2.2L and a 5-speed manual. At some point, I could not get the vehicle past about 60mph. Didn’t matter what gear I was in or how I played with the throttle, it just topped out there.

My 2023 Mazda 3 only brakes like neverspeakawordagain’s Palisade does.

“At GM, we believe that vehicles are not just modes of transportation — they’re also technology platforms that can enrich our customers’ lives.”

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again:
