Where I used to live, there is a mountain pass that an interstate goes through, as well as the old US highway the interstate superseded. It’s not unusual, especially in winter/early spring/late fall to have thick, pea-soup fog at the top of the pass. Therefore, the highway department has installed large digital signs…

Here is the intersection where the diver took a very wrong turn

Most western nations: “A boat is out of control and headed for the river bank, evacuate the waterfront!”

Even old New York was once New Amsterdam.

Yeah, there’s no way an “air bubble” is going to stop any rock larger than pea gravel. I can see why they recommend the helmet above 70, because they will become lethal at that point. But even just going 45, you’re going to be rolling up to the hospital instead of the club.

The first moment I heard this was a movie, I thought to myself, “what’s the point?” The whole reason it works as a Broadway play is because dancers dress up as cats to perform. If you digitally alter the actors, basically you’ve casted Marvel characters as theatre performers.

Sad to hear. This guy’s name is synonymous with safety gear for racing. Oddly enough, I hadn’t heard his backstory, so that’s interesting. Reminds me a lot of Don Garlits (drag racer). After a clutch exploded and nearly amputated his feet, he helped invent the rear engine dragster, which places all the dangerous spinni…

The subway hasn’t always been shitty, but it’s pretty shitty now thanks to budget cutbacks and other decisions that kick the can down the road.

Why do people feel the need to argue over such trivial things? Everything is insignificant when compared to Baby Yoda.

My feelings too. Changing a tire with a floor jack on concrete is like slicing through butter with a hot knife, whereas changing it with the stock jack on a gravel shoulder constantly aware it’ll only take one idiot who’s drunk/sleepy/texting to end your life is like cutting down the tallest tree in the forest…

This poll is so far from a scientific survey, it’s basically garbage. Essentially, you’re asking a group of people “hey, you just spent at least $25,000 on a purchase, do you like it enough to do it again?” Of course most people are going to answer in the affirmative, because it fuels their own ego. It’s like saying…

Uh, yeah. Because as you stated this is a one-time special occasion. So, if you can afford to splurge once in a half-century, might as well throw in a few more bucks for your server. Also, a restaurant that can serve a $250/shot scotch is likely very high-brow and so the servers are expected to perform at a much…

Tommy is a loving husband and father

One cursory look at r/justrolledintotheshop and you’ll first ask, “what idiot completely ignores screaming brakes?” Then you’ll go, “wait a minute, are they sharing the road with me?” and actually understand why we need inspections: for all the idiots who wouldn’t maintain their car’s basic safety features without…

Yeah, this guy wasn’t “checking” on his dog, he was playing with him or some other activity where he had to have his head turned 180° for more than 15 seconds to A.) not see the flashing blue lights before turning his head and B.) crash into said flashing blue lights sometime later due to inattention.

Actually, I care more about the guy who got his car slammed into. That could be his only way to work, his only way to get groceries, his only way to make doctor’s appointments, etc. Now, he’s looking at potentially being without a car for at least a few days before he is authorized to get a rental, and then after a…

Just don’t drive your Mercedes SLS on it, or you might end up with a virtually shredded tire.

William Shatner has a star. So, if he is known well enough as one character to qualify for a star, I believe the DeLorean would qualify too.

I can tell you why your parents don’t feel a Fit is safe, despite the fact just about every car sold in America goes through rigorous safety testing and come with required safety features. It’s the classic Boomer logic, the cars they grew up didn’t have seat belts or air bags or crumple zones, so bigger was better.…

Because this also seems like the first time someone posted a question like, “I’m every Jalopnik reader ever who has had a kid...”
