It’s a wild thing to essentially play chicken with a vehicle that outweighs you by a factor of at least ten.

Since 1973, in fact.

These facilities need to be near, or ideally in the city.  These people don’t have the means to get themselves to where jobs are concentrated.  Housing them 30 miles away is just going to move the homeless encampment farther away from everything that could help them get out of that situation.

The solution is for city councils etc. to stop caving to the NIMBYs.  The council has the power, not the NIMBYs.  The council is just afraid of losing their seat next election cycle.

I grow peppers in my yard and arrived at a similar solution to rampant theft. Most my plants are in a bed near the road to get the best light. Every year, hobos come and mangle my plants while stealing the peppers. I don’t mind someone who’s hungry grabbing a pepper to eat. But they’re tearing out whole branches, even…

We are a real rainbow coalition that way haha

This idiot does know that the door doesn’t magically slam shut after one person uses it, right? Everyone else can just... Follow you out.

Great article!

For once, we agree! Though I do wish it was about something slightly less depressing...

Okay, there’s like a thousand and four reasons (give or take) not to do a video. I kinda want to know what was the main reason. The illegality of driving it on the street? Maybe it’s stupefyingly uninteresting? Devoid of both quirks and features? Maybe it is actually bricked at this point?

For that to work, some government agency would have to make a good, sensible, rational decision.

You know those fines will just be funneled toward leftover war machines that the Army doesn’t need any more.

You're not wrong.

The B-pillars on the ND Miata RF create massive blind spots. That little black area that looks like a window? Black plastic. Can’t see through it.

I’ve been on record saying the same thing about organ donation.

At some point, our efforts to increase helmet use produce such tiny marginal gains that it doesn’t really make sense to keep trying. Some percentage of these no-helmet folks simply will *not* listen. They know it’s pointlessly dangerous, and that is kind of the point for them.

Also gonna guess the thing is kinda terrible and the seller doesn’t want Doug to say so in a video that any potential buyer will definitely watch.

Great hit. But now we need a new baseball.

I hope so, I was really disappointed no one at C&B did a review video on this thing. It seems like Peak Doug.

Definitely a bit of a numbers game with the reporting. Far more Teslas being sold means far more Teslas in accidents compared to, say, BMW i3s.
