South Floridian here, no idea how it’s remotely possible to get killed at any of our crossings. The train isn’t killing anyone, people are going out of their way to get killed

Sorry Erin, but this is a bad, click-bait-y article.

The issue here is human stupidty, self-entitlement and lack of respect for dangerous situations. I was a clerk for a class-1 railway, and processed a lot of crossing mishap reports. The most common responses from pedestrians, cyclists, roller bladers, drivers, etc. stupid enough to play chicken with a train, and lucky…

I feel like a huge part of the problem are those 178 rail crossings over just 66.5 miles. That’s a rail crossing every 1,973 feet (601 meters) compared to one every 9,916 feet (3,022 meters) for CalTrain. That’s more than five times the number of railway crossings per unit distance, which is just another way of saying…

Not sure I really understand this take. A majority of the issues are from people trying to race the train at a crossing, which is never a good idea.

But a dustpan and broom...

Had I not looked at the author, I would’ve legit thought someone stole one of David’s Jeeps.

Edwin’s car was so good because one of the things Edwin knows is: it’s not how you stand by your car, it’s how you race your car.

The argument of “only rich people care about their general health, surroundings, and hate vermin!” seems to be inherently flawed.

5th Gear: Old News.

If you even considered buying it, at any price, you’ve never driven one. A single 2 mile test drive would change your mind. Every red light is an anxiety-inducing event, every merge makes you wish for mercy, side roads are the only option, as these are illegally slow for expressways. A friend of mine who had one was…

A metric ton is 1,000 kilograms. Or 2,200 pounds.

very first post is victim blaming. good fucking job.

What an honor. I mean... I have no stake in America after I retire next year seeing as I’m Canadian/Italian. But thanks anyway!

How to improve Tesla build quality.

I am going to have to make a start-up “Wayush”.  It is a gig based car washing service to clean the autonomous car service cars on a regular basis. I will charge the companies $10 per car and give the Wayush user $1.35, and make them pay for thier own supplies. The rest of the money will go to customer aquisition, my…

If he’ll do any car, would should send him MBs Yugo. I’ll chip in $2.

turns out one does not simply power out of a turn...
