Even if you know what to do, it’s nontrivial. They expect you to do this in an emergency?

I am surprise a model X has a manual. I would have thought it has an Elon Musk hologram projected on to the dash that gives you a guided tour.

A different but similar incident that comes to mind is the man that died in his Corvette in a parking lot (heat stroke I believe). I believe the battery died and he either didn’t have a cell phone or forgot it in the restaurant he was at (and others in the parking lot apparently didn’t notice his cries for help).

If only there was a way to incorporate some sort of latching mechanism..... maybe put a very clear handle for the passengers to use to open a door.

Emergency door release should be more visible. I mean, it is usually passengers, not owners, in the back seat, and do owners need to explain safety procedures for every guest?

When is the last time anyone ever read their car’s manual?

This list is pretty good, but the most obvious one that was missed is the “driver who cannot admit they made a mistake and always blames someone else.” When they fuck up, no matter how small, they look for somebody else to blame for the problem.

well... if i ever go to a cars and coffee ill definitely be flooring it on the way out ( witness my 35 ish screaming horsies)... oh yea... slow and loud

I’m kinda impressed a V6 charger COULD fishtail.

Can’t wait for the videos!.....,er I mean, how terrible.

1. I wish this weren’t necessary. There are several places around where I live where turning right requires stopping to 1mph from 40 or else you’re basically guaranteed to lose a fender/tire on a curb or pole or rut or something. I really, really hate it.

“Why is it always the people with shitty cars that try and show out? No one gives a fuck about your 10-year-old V6 charger, I promise.”

Someone’s gonna say it, so here goes:

Or the guy who blocks that aisle, while waiting for somebody to vacate that precious parking space, even though they’re not even finished loading up their groceries yet.

I know it as “Jersey Glide” and to see one perfectly executed is a thing of beauty. For the glide to be perfect, the driver most merge without warning across 3 or more lanes in busy traffic without ever looking. When it’s really good I’m not even mad.

The Brits are our last hope.

Forgot Bentley! (only Continental GT Speed displayed)

To be fair.

That doesn’t matter because 1) If green is an option, I will never configure a car in a color that isn’t green. 2) People who aren’t me, i.e. those who can afford to by an S-Class, will buy it in black, like every S-Class
