Coincidentally, about an hour ago (3:00pm on Monday afternoon). I’m sitting in front of a coffee shop and there’s a shitfaced old drunk parked in the red zone right in front of me. He’s obviously trashed; puking out the window, nodding in and out, etc. Shitfaced Drunk in the middle of the afternoon. I called 911, cops…

i feel old having been around when that first hit the web

Worth noting here: The reason they specifically mention 150 km/h is because that’s the threshold where they can lay the stunt driving charge and impound the car for a week on the spot. The limit on the highway is 100 km/h. 50 over (not only on highways) and it’s an automatic impoundment and week-long license…

Brave of you to publicly advocate for civil forfeiture. Most people think that’s horrible.

I always wondered what happened to this crew. And now I know the rest of the story:

Why?

its clever engineering but then again Land Rover has a history of clever engineering, sometimes too clever. The end results are insane repair bills, and complicated engineering solutions are that...whats the word...less than reliable. I would hate to have to buy a new bonnet for a disco

“Alex Heslop, the Discovery’s chief engineer, admitted that air can indeed come through here, but since that’s at the back of the hood—very high off the ground—it’s really not much of a concern for wading.”

If this car was absolutely flawless? $8k all day long.

I appreciate his honesty, but the issues the car presents with make it a CP at, well, pretty much any price. Right off the bat it needs a clutch master cylinder, which isn’t expensive or hard, but it’s something I have to do. It needs coilovers, which isn’t hard, but again, something I have to do. It needs a CEL…

Proofreader Man to the rescue! (sorry, it’s late and I’m procrastinating at work)

Edit: Didn’t realize the malibu was still in front. Thought it was the Grand Am because of the resolution.

Obviously, brake checking someone at that speed is ridiculously unsafe and a major asshole move in any case. But still, I don’t see how it’s the brake-checkers direct fault here. Surely he caused her to be more…

There is no video? Or kinja is broken with Chrome browser

That’s some clickbait shit right there. “Caught on camera” yet they edit out the crash. That’s directed at the Fox affiliate not you, Justin.

at some point, it’s safer just to ram them. and with a vehicle camera, you can show that the brake checker was the cause of it all..

Despite my age bracket placing me in the millennial crowd, I don’t understand what all the hashtags are for. Can someone elaborate for this old geezer?

You can’t get a manual (in this segment I think that’s important) so go fuck yourself, Audi.

Has there been an Audi in the past 20 years that a kid would want to put on their bedroom wall? Even the R8 is sort of a German substitute Lamborghini. It’s the kind of thing I imagine Ferdinand Piech sternly stapling over pictures of Ferraris in his grandkids’ bedrooms.

I dunno. Other than the absence of the tiger nose, it just looks like a KIA to me, with some knock-off Subaru wheels.

The high-end sports car market hasn’t forgotten the manual.
