I think the cops do make a reasonable point that it’s very hard to use lethal force accurately on a moving subway car.

I’m the farthest thing from a police apologist but this is simply irresponsible reporting. He wasn’t shot because he was running from evading a fair, he was shot because when confronted about the fair he came after cops with a knife.

There’s a big difference between taking the engine up to the rev limiter, and actual over-revving which can only really be caused by downshifting.

he discovered the flood carried the truck 100 yards from its initial parking spot—only 20 yards short of a football field

Describing Mary Kay as a “hugely successful woman-founded cosmetic business empire” is wild without mention of it’s predatory design and practices. 

Article conclusion really capturing that nostalgia for the life-ruining multi-level marketing scam FR. By Mary Kay’s own admission, 83 percent of its sellers don’t make money, which means, since they have to buy their own supplies, they are LOSING money. The actual numbers are likely far higher. Mary Kay and her…

“70 year old driver hits wrong pedal” is way less exciting to talk about though.

Right, but that would probably have come up if he’d, you know, filled out the proper paperwork in the first place.

I mean, we know who’s in the wrong. Like it or not, the dad didn’t figure out if one was necessary and/or didn’t apply for a permit. Unsurprisingly, most villages/towns/cities don’t want you to install paved race tracks in your back yard. So they require you to get a permit. He didn’t do it, and built it anyway. Would…

Tractor Supply is trying to make inroads into suburbia, looking for customers with free income to spend on “rural” hobbies, in some places that is still fairly red but in others it can be purple or blue.

I suspect that most of the M5 buyers who actually want to drive on a track can also afford to buy dedicated track cars that are better suited for the task at hand.

It is no surprise that track enthusiasts don’t want to shuffle a car well over 2 tons (soon to be over 2.5 tons) around a race track and instead prefer lighter, smaller cars. Sure, a car with a big V8 and effortless power and torque is fun for a few laps until the car eats through a set of brake pads and puts…
