My Viper chin spoiler scrapes at nearly every regulation speed bump. I’ve been high centered on others that are apparently within “educational system spec”. It’s stock ride height.

At one educational complex I was doing pre/post risk analytics. Speed bumps lowered speeds and road noise by 80%, but accidents went up 10

Just FYI - I lived in West Town in Chicago. My 993 turbo would bump on the speed bumps. They’re plastic curbs bolted into the concrete, not something I have seen anywhere else in the US or the world. I had to crawl over the speed bumps almost to a stop, roll over and stop at the top and then creep down. It was not

It is. 

It was in front of his garage he wasn’t hitting it at speed. It’s possible it was just a shitty speed bump. 

I’ll be honest, I don’t really care what car he drives. Any speed bump that damages a stock vehicle is a problem.

TVRs are the crazy psycho high maintenance needy overly obsessive hot chicks of the car world

Never put your dick in crazy, unless your name is daddy. 

Here it is with the brake lights on.

TVR always seemed like if the Viper division of Dodge moved to England and did more drugs

Furthermore:

Once upon a time I worked management for a grocery store, and the cart coral was at the top of a hill. And we were outside one evening when the lot was mostly empty and watched some clown pull that maneuver with the cart going uphill. He turned and got into his expensive sedan.

Shopping carts are prefect for my OCD needs.

This is why you properly return your shopping carts, people!

A year ago, a log truck driver, racing to pick a load to carry to the mill, pulled around a line of cars stopped in the road without slowing down; they were waiting for the lead car to make a left turn. He passed right around them and slammed head-on into the car into the oncoming lane. My cousin was driving the car.

The truck driver claimed that his brakes failed...”

You can still find people who think it’s safer to drive without your seatbelt buckled because “you want to be thrown clear in an accident.”

I live in a climate with extreme cold, snow and lately in summer, extreme heat. That doesn’t mean that it’s 24/7/365 shitty. More than half the year is great. And when you live in a place with lots of snow and cold weather, you tend to own clothes for that weather.

I’m doing my part as a walking carbon sink. I’m not helping much when it comes to methane, though.

My thoughts exactly. Another thing that bothers me is that carbon and carbon dioxide are two totally different things. The term ‘carbon emissions’ needs to be replaced with ‘CO2 emissions’

I has a friend that I never could convince about octane. “Only the best for my car”. Even after I explained what octane means, “Well, she’s used to it now, so . . .”.

I didn’t opine on unions in general but overall I truly dislike what they have become in the U.S. The form of unions in Europe under the European Trade Union Confederation is far superior in my opinion.
