In the Netherlands when an accident happens between a car and cyclist/pedestrians, the cyclist/pedestrian is by default right. The (car)driver has to proof that he is not to blame. Besides the fact that all drivers in NL were cyclists once (very little schoolbuses or car-lines at elementary) this helps to protect the…

This article read as if the Sunrise Movement wrote it.

Was there another video that wasn’t linked with the mentioned “lurched forward”? Letting the car creep forward instead of just waiting for the guys that were clearing them away to finish doing so wasn’t a great move, but it also wasn’t some Charlottesville incident in the making.

Back in the day, honesty and humility weren’t seen as negative traits or traits only for suckers.

I still see Rabbits driving around from time to time (possible bias, my neighbor has one). What I haven’t seen in forever is a 70's Corolla.

I would like to point out that #3 is likely still running and is the only vehicle that you can buy today with the current namebadge.,

He meant to roll coal. If his stupidity resulted in someone getting seriously hurt, he needs to pay the price. His parents obviously put the idea in his head, and allowed him to drive a huge truck. While kids are not known for making good choices to begin with, this goes beyond “I didn’t mean to”. For example, a bank…

Didn’t mean to hit them and run them over, definitely meant to harm them physically and emotionally. Also definitely meant to do it with an illegally modified vehicle. Hopefully it’s a stern lesson.

Not only this, but what about in cold climates? We know that battery capacity becomes dramatically reduced, up to 50% in some vehicles depending on the cold. For me who lives in Northern Alberta, where in the winter it is routinely -30C, I can’t even being to think about switching to an EV if the range at optimal…

Having evacuated a crashed plane once (folded up gear on landing in Amsterdam years ago), I now keep my wallet, phone and passport or other ID with me in the seat until we’re off the ground, and get them out again before we land. Fuck the luggage. If I can get my body off the plane with my phone, wallet and ID, that’s…

For anyone wondering: Yes, I listened to Dragula on repeat for the duration of researching and writing this

If you’re old enough/judged responsible enough to drive a vehicle on public roads, you’re old enough/responsible enough to face adult charges for vehicular crimes.

I don’t understand that outrage of wanting to paint Air Force One with the colors of our national flag. I mean the light blue and gold look nice but they are not exactly USA colors? Could the design be better? Sure. But I think we should use the colors of our flag. 

Hey, uh, can you delete this and rewrite it from a neutral place instead of pitting Christians/believers against non-believers? The reality is this: Chik-fil-a has a schedule policy and it is tied in to their beliefs. That’s their right. If they don’t open, they don’t open. They don’t deny service to anyone based on…

Or maybe they just don’t support the president. Maybe they disagree with a president that made the biggest donation the taliban has ever had. Maybe they think this president has been extremely stagnant. Did anyone chant anything racist? Not even close. Just because someone doesn’t share a political stance with you…

Consumer vehicles are becoming more and more like smartphones on wheels. It only makes sense that in the next 20 years, we’ll see at least one large tech conglomerate - Sony, Apple, Google, Amazon, Samsung - will attempt launch their own transportation device of some kind. Key word being “attempt” - and if successful,…

simulated shifts. wo ho. why not put a pretend stick shift on the floor that changes the pitch and tone and volume of the simulated engine sounds.

This absolutely strikes me as greenwashing at the highest level. Like Al Gore driving his Prius to the airport to board his private jet.

Have they taken into account the increased backdoor emissions that come from eating veggie slurry based fake meat product?

As much as the Mustang II is reviled now I remember when it was new, modern and extremely popular. Back then, reviewers were a lot more forgiving, perhaps because what there was to compare the car to wasn’t that much brighter a light.
