I lived in Ann Arbor when this bus went on display. It was really a thing to see. It being restored and put on display by a museum with Henry Ford’s name on it feels…fitting. I mean, don’t whitewash what he was. But using that name and museum to display an artifact like that appropriately is progress and we kind of…

Bold assumption that Americans are willing to adapt in the face of death/danger.

Helsinki isn’t Florida.  You don’t really see headlines like...”Helsinki man...”

Raze away. Why in the hell should taxpayers be held responsible for a multi-billion dollar corporation’s real estate boondoggle? Plus it’s just a 1970's skyscraper, who gives a fuck if it gets torn down, it’s not exactly a historically significant building. I’m sure another ugly sky penis will get put up in its place.

My argument is if you can reduce drunk and distracted driving you will have less vehicles hitting pedestrians.

So. Um. Given the last paragraph?
Maybe change the headline or first line to: Tesla owners are the worst drivers on the road, as they somehow make what Consumer Reports rated as the most safe car, into the least safe. I mean, I think that’s an interesting phenomena.
And much more interesting, finally, than the rest of…

I’ve not had great experience with Bridgestone tires. They didn’t wear out quickly, but the ride and handling just didn’t come close to that of Michelin tires.

Am I the only one that hates these slideshow articles? It reminds me of the clickbait articles that are like, “you’ll never believe what happened to so and so from that show you watched as a teen” and then it takes fifteen pages of filler material to find out they’re in jail.

I don’t want my tires to give me a bang. That is literally the opposite of their job. I want the tires which give me the least bang.

Okay, I’ll be that guy: I have tested at pretty much the same level (.067) once, when I was cycling home. I would have bet anything I would fail (i.e.: test above .79, the limit for driving is .05 here), given what I had imbibed and how I felt.

Wait a minute - his BAL was 0.067. The limit is 0.08 (at least where I am). And you can easily be impaired under the ‘legal limit’, and still subject to prosecution. So no - at least here - 0.067 is absolutely not a guarantee that the dude was ‘sober enough to drive’.

At least in the states I have lived, refusing a sobriety test is treated as a failure. I’ve seen the online “advice” that if you think you’ll fail the sobriety test, you should refuse it and delay as long as you can for the blood test in hopes that it will take multiple hours to get there so your body has more time to…

If the child is a minor, how is her accepting TOS even enforceable, legally? I didn’t think minors could “execute” (legally at least) such terms...

I still think about and miss Consumerist, which was long ago the best of the Gawker Media sites and was bought by CR.

Depends on who you think they were serving. I’m guessing it’s the rest of the citizenry who has to deal with Hill’s reckless driving. Also, remember Hill was involved in an assault at a marina last year.

And all Hill had to do was leave his heavily tinted window rolled down.  Basically we had a meeting of the assholes here.

The funniest, or saddest, parts of the whole video was Hill complaining that he couldn’t bend down or sit down fast because he just had knee surgery. If his knees were really that bad there’s no way he could/would have played in that game or any others for at least a few weeks.

Hmm, a reasonable take on the internet. I’m not sure I was mentally prepared for this. I mean, what am I going to yell about? What will I do with all these leftover ALL CAPS letters on my keyboard?

I feel so....empty and unfulfilled.  

There is a problem making a direct correlation of increased pedestrian deaths with larger vehicles unless the data directly shows that deaths are only occurring when larger vehicles hit legal pedestrians.

Ford was never choosing between helping or hurting people. They were and are trying to sell more cars. Nothing more. DEI initiatives are marketing, they broaden appeal, For most companies there is no moral imperative behind DEI activities. Now that the right has gone full blown open culture war, they know they…
