I’m sure a lot depends on what manufacturer the state/school system has contracted with. Also, with a flat-front pusher style bus the driver can better see when a child is still in front of the bus.

I don’t know what it’s like where you (anyone who reads this) are, but around where I live people can’t be bothered to walk the couple hundred feet to a crosswalk. They’d rather stand in the median or on a lane line, waiting for traffic to pass, in order to cross the street and saving the trouble walking to cross…

As someone who’s wanted a Jeep since he was a little kid, are they worth the low MPG, rattles, and leaky tops? Also, would you recommend a hardtop or softtop? I’m currently in an apartment w/o a garage, so I’d have nowhere to store a hardtop. Thanks!

I drive past a Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep dealership most days for work, and I can see at least 3 neon green Wranglers from the road. Granted, they’ve been there for a while meaning no one is buying them, but at least FCA is offering a variety of colors.

The problem comes in trying to determine if there’s reasonable suspicion to stop a driver when the impaired limit is 0.05 vs. 0.08. When you start getting down to low BAC numbers, alcohol-affected driving looks like everyday bad driving. Decrease the legal limit, increase the likelihood of fishing expeditions by…

Not sure if serious but:

I didn’t realize they flicker at cruising speed. That would make sense that the flickering would scare off birds. There’s a parking deck in Charlotte that has metallic pyramid-shaped things on the rooftop that spin in the wind and scare off poopy birds.

It’s always satisfying to quiet my back-seat passengers’ Volvo-related insults with a stealthy press of this button:

He fooled that 55% into thinking everything would be okay if he won.

Charlotte is crawling with them. I rarely see an unmodded Wrangler. They all have custom rims, knobby tires, led headlights, led light bars. To drive in a city where you’ll get about 15MPG.

That’s a great explanation. Thank you! It’s infuriating at evening rush hour leaving the city when that left-turn light seems to last 8-10 seconds and I’m stuck in the back trying to get over.

Hopefully you didn’t design this in Charlotte. Two left-turn lanes. The right one is used to get on I-277, the left one turns on the crossroad. Someone thought it was a great idea to have that curb jutting out into the left lane.

If I ever owned a convertible I would want to put the top down as much as possible, despite needing to apply sunscreen if I’d be driving in the sun for more than an hour. However, driving with the top down on a summer night is the tits.

Not going to lie - my first thought would be a drunk driver. But, given that it’s Florida, a Caddy, and the driver (upon inspection) didn’t appear intoxicated, I would have eventually deduced a medical situation.

It’s the one hug I get everyday.

Oh, look. Another unintelligible Virginia vanity plate.
