Nope.

The Avalon is a great, overlooked car.

The fact that a modern Camry can outperform the 80s supercars of my childhood supports your theory.

I grumble as much as anyone about trends in auto design and engineering, but there is absolutely zero doubt that cars today are better in virtually every way than they ever have been.

Hi, Folks! Mod Motor Guy, the shop owner checking in again!

Dealership is in the wrong. Allow me to explain my shop’s insurance policy, and you will soon see....

1. General liability - this is EXACTLY as it sounds. If I am out driving your car for whatever reason, be it a test drive, a delivery, or anything general…

The Maine BMV clarified that while these vehicles are old enough to be classified as an antique in the state, they were still built for the safety and emissions regulations of another country and thus, the statute still applies.

“We should have been more precise in our language around the Delica and ‘mini-trucks,’ but regardless, the underlying statute is what is being followed.””

1st gen liberties were actually alright looking. It was 2nd gen that were terrible. They were both terrible cars but at least the 1st gen want terrible looking.

Tires. Don’t buy the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese tires that are extremely hard and increase your braking distance. They lack grip and tend to handle abysmally in the rain. There’s plenty of cheap tires made by proper tire manufacturers you should buy instead if you’re working with a limited budget.

Seriously? Four equally sensible and viable options?

Just put breathalyzer ignition interlocks on every car and be done with it.

There was a kid who sued a gun manufacturer after getting shot. The courts upheld the verdict and I think the gun maker went out of business. Car makers should also pay all my speeding tickets because the make cars that go faster than the speed limit...LOL!

Imma sue the dinosaurs that became the gas

Next thing we know, people will be suing the dead body of Daimler for inventing the car.

Do auto dealers have a duty to not sell vehicles to someone who may potentially drive drunk?  Seems like reaching here. I have a feeling if this made it to the Supreme Court it might get slapped down.

Dealing with drunk people is not fun. Back in the day, working at a gas station, refused to sell alcohol to someone clearly intoxicated and they almost threw a six pack of bottles at my head.

Can the state be culpable for providing the highway on which  the accident occurred?

I agree fully with the dissenting judge. This isn’t setting up a slippery slope, it’s just dumping liability on anyone lawyers can think of, which is pretty much everyone.

Enough with making everybody except the actual guilty party liable. This is just to facilitate financial transfers from a party that actually has money to the victim or victim’s estate. Just put breathalyzer ignition interlocks on every car and be done with it. (Of course then you’ll get drunk drivers asking a…

As a former NM resident, the drunk driving problem is rampant. This…is a very specific incident and this new law is not a way to curb the problem.
