I wonder what happens in states where it’s illegal to talk on your phone while driving?

So are my hard-earned tax dollars paying these coaches?

I just have to say to whoever at Comedy Central realized the marketing master stroke of having Anne Coulter on a roast: bravo. I’m sure her participation wasn’t cheap, but putting her on that stage all but guaranteed a fucking traffic accident of free publicity.

Alternative Option:
Step 1: Buy collision insurance
Step 2: Drive car off cliff at conclusion of rental term.

That doesn’t actually make any sense. If the seats were just getting narrower without adding more rows of seats, the average spacing between seats would be increasing not decreasing.

It absolutely is that they are adding additional seats as the original poster thought wasn’t possible. If you take a look at this…

And how did no congressman ever come forward with a plan to snatch this contract up and deliver jobs to their district? How easy a sell would it have been to say “lets provide jobs to honest, hard working American non-criminals first?”

I don’t think even Texas allows open carry inside the airport; but I see your point.

#Trump2016

I guess this is probably the best narrative the Trump campaign can employ to try and stop the hemorrhaging from that comment; but it’s still not a very good one. The best they can manage here is “our guy isn’t capable of expressing his views clearly enough that most Americans can tell if he’s calling for violence or…

I don’t think the idea of trailers with batteries is going to take off. I think, for the most part, the clients own the trailers and the trucking companies do not. It would be hard to market a truck that required every potential client to buy a new, very expensive trailer.

I think it’s more likely that Tesla is going…

Okay, this guy is a allowed to drive while using a cell phone...but no one else!

I’m going to wait for the F-35B model...she does things the other models won’t do.

Still, even though this crash turned out alright for everyone in the end, the takeaway is: the cars actually can get over those barriers in the right conditions.

Ostensibly, those fences are there because during an actual race there might be a crowd on the other side. I think that’s why this is scary.

My impression is this company doesn’t have the technology yet, but they honestly believe they are getting close and are trying to raise capital to finish. Maybe they will fail, maybe they will succeed, but the idea is sound.

There’s nothing about this design that sounds too out of place. They aren’t claiming to have developed anything revolutionary, it’s all sounding like a clever integration of existing technologies. Gas turbine engines are used all over the place: helicopters, tanks, APU’s for airliners, building power backups. If you…

Aha! I’ve been saying for years we should be building these types of engines. Gas turbines provide excellent power to weight ratios and very good fuel consumption. The reason we don’t use them to power vehicles directly is that they don’t deliver low level of power very efficiently, and it takes a lot of fuel just to…

This kind of reminds me of the “unintended acceleration” case from Toyota from some years back, where people claimed their cars took off without any input from them. I always wondered, why didn’t they just turn off the ignition? Are we really taking the line that people have no responsibility for understanding how…

Just to play devil’s advocate here: it’s not impossible that what they said does excuse this kind of behavior. If that driver of that car legitimately feared for their safety from the motorcyclists, and that was the only viable escape route, I could see a case being made. Granted, that’s a pretty unlikely scenario.

Really it’s most areas that are not cities. Once the density goes down, people seem to behave better on the roads. I live in the North Bay, and as soon as I cross the Golden Gate bridge I can feel myself switch into “city mode” where I start driving more aggressively to maneuver through heavier traffic, and as far as…
