Take his Jeep away too. Make him get around on a bike. That would be justice!

Makes no sense either. Texas has a huge cycling scene and only hurts themselves not handling these incidents properly. Over and over again..

He should also have his license suspended/revoked.

The only way to stop a bad person with a Jeep, is a good person with a Jeep.

This is why I absolutely refuse to ride on the street at all any more and ride exclusively on bike paths. I firmly believe that a good 15-20% of the population has gone completely unhinged insane. 

Love seeing these German cars bone stock here in Northern Europe. As an 9American) I’m amazed at how owners typically take their cars in for service to the minute, and maintain them forever in many cases. The kids build crazy drift car inspired stuff here (Sweden) but you should not be surprised to see a cherry B4…

Many many years ago, I went for a tour of Herrenchiemsee Palace. It’s the last of “Mad King Ludwig”’s castles. It’s a copy of Versailles, but with extra gild. It wasn’t finished, but you can see a lot of what it was supposed to be before Bavaria ran out of money and Ludwig ran out of air.

I had, I think, an 84 Chevette, with a manual transmission that didn’t suck nearly as hard as this T1000 (when it wasn’t chasing after John Connor) seems to have done.

What I don’t understand is how America could have screwed up T-Car.

The ironic thing is that if you make a city less car-centric, it makes driving (when you do) much more pleasant because there are fewer cars on the streets. One of my favourite YouTube channels, Not Just Bikes, has a video about it:

I’m all for it. And higher sales tax, higher registration licensing fees, higher everything. Drive something stupidly large, pay stupidly more for it.

My housemate / colleague had a 106 GTi which was awesome.

The doors felt and sounded like they were fashioned from old Tennent’s cans, so it probably was a real deathtrap, but it was cute, quick, and easy to park.

Good these suvs and trucks are proven to be more dangerous not just to pedestrians but also other vehicles. You get to pay to play.

Penalties should also be proportionate to your income. A $50 parking fine isn’t a fine to a rich person, it’s the cost of parking.

Assigning penalties based on actual risk to the public of a particular infraction is certainly a reasonable approach to take. It’s just an aggravating factor.

I have a 30 minute commute to work. My public transportation option would take three hours, each way. The problem isn’t cars, it’s the public transportation infrastructure, or lack thereof.

Or “Fewer” if they don’t want to piss of the Twitter Grammarians.

But personally, I prefer “Reduce” because it could also imply making cars smaller, which would also be a benefit

The issue is not the existence of cars. It is the lack of any other option for 99% of the people in this country. Without cars, you need ready access to things that you can gather by any other method than a car. No access without a car means you have to have a car.

Trying to co-opt your critics is an understandable, but in the end, it just means you’re accepting maximalist branding that will push away people who aren’t aware of the inside baseball that generated the slogan in the first place.
