my dude, that’s just a left turn .. who the fuck dreads that other than people who dread about a bajillion other things one routinely does while driving?

Because this isn’t about any specific model, it’s about market share and businesses; range and model specific stats are irrelevant to the story.

Just recovering from the shock of seeing a new car interior with clear, individual buttons and dials for the climate control.

Urban roads are not, and will never be “just for cars.” Even with separated sidewalks and bike lanes, people still have to cross roadways, and in those situations, greater care needs to be taken to minimize contact. Right-on-red makes it way too easy for contact to occur in places where it shouldn’t. Thankfully, most…

The fatalities alone don’t tell the whole story. How many collisions and injuries to pedestrians and cyclists occur in right-on-red situations?

This idiotic. If there are enough pedestrians or bicyclists anywhere, they need a safe place to travel on. Like in an urban area, most, or at least a huge percentage of people will be on bicycles and scooters or their feet and what not. Should they not use streets? Should they not be able to use them safely? Obviously…

Here’s the problem......the law says you can right on red after you stop and after you ascertain that the way is clear - this includes pedestrians as well as cross traffic. And therein lies the problem, people have decided that right on red means you don’t have to stop, look, or anything else - just go right on…

My city must be the greenest in the US.  People go right on red without stopping all the time.  They also go left on red and straight on red all the time as well.  Heck, they don’t even slow down.  Really saves on emissions and it does reduce the number of gas guzzling vehicles on the road almost daily as well.

Now this is some next level nonsense even by Jalopnik standards. Hey, you go on the roads, tough luck if you get killed by a car. We should make vehicular manslaughter legal while we’re at it.

This would be more meaningful were I not aware of several intersections with pedestrian crossings where the line-of-sight in one or more directions was severely limited where between those intersections that view isn’t interrupted.

That’s not the point. The point is that drivers make the roads dangerous, both for other drivers and all other road users, not the pedestrians.

I’ve literally never heard anyone pronounce it Poor-She.

And how many EVs have you driven? It sounds more like your assumption than anything else. Besides, I think your statement is completely backwards. If all EVs totally took the drivetrain differences out of the equation (which I don’t think is accurate), then that would make every other aspect of the vehicle MORE…

Rolling coal. Yes we get it, you hate the environment, Prius’, and bicyclists. There’s probably a bumper sticker for that.

I really wish we could get these announcements with the supporting data that CARB is using. They aren’t throwing a dart at the wall and saying “guess it’ll be 2027". They are looking at data that says “there are X number of trucks being used in the state and local governments and based on the service life and these…

That bridge looked like it was made of left over scaffolding and a piece of sheet metal from a job site, maybe I am expecting too much from the Congo, but that hardly looked safe to begin with, let alone with more than 3 people on it. That guys suit probably cost more than the bridge.

I’ve got 20 years working in telematics, vehicle data acquisition, vehicle systems communication, and systems integration. All of it in the on and off road markets worldwide.

Without all that extra income, the police department ends up furloughing some officers, while saying that the town will be worse off for it. The town will be just fine, except for a spat of property damage crimes that are eventually found to have been perpetrated by a furloughed officer (or at least directly…

Tesla now needs a reason to have a market cap of $877.38 Billion and a share price of $282.03 with only 930 thousand vehicles delivered in 2021. For comparison’s sake, Ford’s market cap is $61.70 Billion and their share price is $15.35 with 1.9 million vehicles delivered in 2021, including an EV truck that has very…

Tesla should probably work on making more than one current model then eh. I mean the S has been updated but its a generation of technology old, and the X is just a minivan S. The Model 3 is the only real current model they offer. Meanwhile Toyota has 18 models in the US alone. Now, I’m not suggesting Tesla needs to…
