Here in central Florida the biggest issue is definitely tinted plate covers. Just by the sheer number I see I know that the cops aren’t doing shit about it. It’s obscuring your plate, plain and simple. Like the most slam dunk ticket ever.

Hard to feel bad for someone’s toy car that costs more than the houses ordinary folks can’t even afford.

I want ‘needs sunglasses’ range of colours only.

“Wicked bad luck at work today.  Joey was trying to bang a U-ey and this fricking guy just pulls right out in front of him.”

2019 I worked with a guy that said he's one of the good rich people. I looked at him like he was nuts. I was right

Slightly off-topic but as someone who had a Diablo model and poster on their wall since the early nineties, silver has to be the worst color for this car.

At the end of the day it is on California to follow through with its violations and penalties. You can assess as many penalties as you want but if they are not enforced and followed up with more severe punishments, nothing will happen.

The vehicle was transported/contracted by Intercity Lines that do not use 3rd party brokers. 100% on the company dime, but that does not account for any driver negligence like routine checks that my not have occured. 

When you’re a billionaire, they let you do it.

In a couple of months none of this will matter.

Isn’t this Erin Brockovitch type shit the stuff people used to go to jail for?

Based on a quick google search, the big concern with the waste is less with the Radioactive waste (mostly low lever tritiated water with a half life of 12.3 years), but the HUGE stockpile of diesel fuel, biohazard waste and chemicals that were banned many many years ago for being a health hazard.

Maybe it’s just me, but I’m starting to think that this Elon guy isn’t such a good dude.

Yeah,

It runs the gamut from driver is completely out of the loop to the driver has known about the system glitching for months about how it is getting worse and could have told the car owner he needed to hire someone to lift the car off the truck or the truck company it needed repair but decided to screw both the transport…

You make it sound like the truck driver himself is at fault. Seems to me like that would only be the case if A) he owned the trailer and B) he didn’t properly maintain it. I imagine he’s an employee of the transport company.

Should have just gave it to them on a “Indefinite Loan”, like many other collector cars at museums. 

Yep. Museums de-accession parts of their collections all the time. This would likely have been done with Mercedes’ blessing; although that’s not always required.

So Mercedes donated it to a museum so it can be preserved and displayed for all to see, and now said museum is auctioning it to the highest bidder, who might just be a random billionaire that will have it craned into his Dubai penthouse ?
