If a gasoline tank blows up in an accident I guess your kids would be unrecognizable too.

The complexity is the main thing. I don’t think I’ll consider a PHEV that is made by anyone other than Toyota.

Except PHEVs have a much bigger battery. And batteries are expensive.

Ummm, Russia exists too, you know?

Apple engineers brought expertise in advanced battery packs and heat management......

His point is that some factories are ‘knock-down kit’ factories where they assemble mostly pre-fabricated modules together, whereas more traditional factories do the metal stampings in-house and build the car from the ground up.

He was fearing for his life. 

When did China ‘set up cell towers’ anywhere in the US?

So that would fall under actual drone attacks, which is hugely different from drone photography. 

Helmet use is actually decreasing over the last 20 years. It’s just insane.

Stop freaking out. It’s known that Russian spy satellites can see our military bases. In fact our nuclear treaties rely on Russian satellite surveillance on our nuclear silos for verification. If the US suddenly tries to hide our nuclear silos, that’s when sh*t hits the fans.

Except the cyclists blowing through stop signs are not the ones being hit by cars. The cyclists dutifully stopping at stop signs, are the ones being hit by cars.

Unless you are proposing to turn us all into robots, we are human beings. We are going to have a lapse in attention every now and then. The point is to make these momentary lapses in attention less deadly.

I imagine they employed a small army of men just to shovel horse droppings off the streets.

I imagine she could work on battery cooling without skipping a beat

One major problem is that trucks are so tall that the driver would not be able to see a person walking in front of it. If you build a tall vehicle, the hood must slope downwards enough that you can see pedestrians.

why don’t we find ways to avoid the collision in the first place

unless you were really in a weird tax situation and couldn’t cash in

The time for convertibles is done and gone. They should just make the next Miata a permanent hard top sports cars.  On my third and last Miata, I never took the hardtop off.
