Re: Chicago.

Not only that, but as long as you don’t floor it the worst thing that’ll happen is you’ll drop off the rear wheels onto the chassis and get stuck waiting for a tow truck or a crane to drag your car off. You won’t actually fall unless you have a pallet of bricks in the back.

Have you read “Thinking Fast and Slow” by Daniel Kahneman? So many people use their “fast” brain when they see statistics, and completely misinterpret the information. Fight the good fight!

“Exists” is carrying a lot of water in that comment.

The speed limit proposal was by the Green Party in last year’s election campaign. It had nothing to do with this Chiron stunt.

The skills training is not about the skills. Traffic crashes are rarely about skill, they are about behavior. Driving faster than you are capable of safely operating a vehicle is a behavior, driving while drunk or using your phone are behaviors, driving while dangerously tired is a behavior, not stopping at that red…

This is the side effect of free charging. It’s time to do away with free charging and go to a user-pay paradigm so that providers are incentivized to keep their shit working.

I don’t know if they’re disabled. My theory is that they are US imports, and the garage that did the inspection took some cash in lieu of fitting a DRL module.

Except that flips around in June, and you get less than 8 hours of darkness.

They’d better get lift passes for life.

Glad to see the GOAT on this list. Northwest Territories, of course.

I learned to drive a manual back in the ‘90s because I was planning a trip to Scotland and it cost at least twice as much to rent an automatic. It opened my eyes to how rare autos were in the UK.

Excellent point. I can’t see Ford not responding by offering extended range option on their base Lightning. 

It says the WT will be “offered” with a 400-mi range. I can almost guarantee that that will be with an optional long-range battery.

I’ve seen these before, but it’s still gobsmacking how easily it goes over.

The horizontal spacing looks dead-nuts accurate, so it’s boggling how this happened. They must have used a jig, but it slipped somehow during the process. The installer was probably in a rush (the line waits for nobody) and just kept going.

These are the games manufacturers are playing to qualify for incentives. It’s annoying!

“You don’t get to tell me how I conduct myself”

Compare this with the methed-up truck driver in Nevada that killed five cyclists and got a 16-year sentence.

I would rather admit to cheating the HOV lane requirements than having a blowup doll “for company.”
