That’s about right - the photographer was his daughter.

Do you have a snap of when James exits the alley? If I remember correctly, he came out on the driver's side wheels.

I just went brain-dead for 6 minutes and 18 seconds. What... What is the point of that crap?

WCC is just never evolving from the 2002 mindset of customizing cars. Let’s have a look inside a 2015(!) Mercedes S Class they have on their site...

Because he kept his cellphone number when he moved.

Was all CP just based on principle because of those moronic wheels but if they aren’t included, it’s NP time!

I didn’t vote on the value of the car, rather I voted on if I believe there has been a crack-pipe smoked in the car before. Ergo, I voted CP, there has been crack smoked in this car.

Clever... not.

How is this materially different than the basic liability issues facing driverless cars?

A human truck driver can take out your family right now. The question isn’t whether autonomous systems are perfectly safe, it’s whether they’re safer or less safe than the *typical* (not ideal) human operator. A computer does not get bored, tired, distracted, angry, aggressive, sloppy, etc.

Someone will insure autonomous trucks. Computers do not need sleep, so no accidents attributed to fatigue.

My prediction is they’ll insure the ‘driver’ just like we do today. Too hard to do it at the manufacturer level since one person might drive 300,000 miles and another 100,000 miles in a vehicle lifetime. One also might drive in high risk areas and another through open country. And with hyper accurate data logs on the…

You can get insurance for *anything*. You’ll just have to pay for their actuary to come up with a number. If this truck drives 100,000 miles without a crash they’ll be pretty happy to give you a policy even if the annual liability costs you $40,000 a year you’ll be saving a ton of money vs a driver. Once the truck has…

Insurance is based on cold, hard statistics. When/if it’s shown that autonomous vehicles are magnitudes more reliable and safe than human drivers, the insurance rates will react accordingly. Or, the things will have more incidents, and the cost of insurance will rise accordingly, but the accompanying reduction in…

You might well find insurance companies that will prefer to insure an automaton over a tired, underpaid trucker.

Insurance companies care about the money. These don’t have to be completely safe, they just have to be safer than the alternative.

Client comes in, wants a new white BMW M235i with a stick and M Performance Exhaust. Which is a car we’d have to order from BMW. Just so happens, I’m selling my 14’ 435xi M Sport, manual transmission, with a few different M Performance parts, including the exhaust. He test drives my car back-to-back with our M235 auto…

It’s weird as hell, but works well. Hard to do a ride height change though.
