2nd Gear:
“While the U.S. recall system is flawed, in other countries we see systems that are virtually nonexistent,” says Sean Kane, president of Safety Research and Strategies Inc., a consultant and advocacy organization in Rehoboth, Mass.

I both want and do not want more context here, and for all of the wrong…

Perhaps that’s one of the two valuations noted as being tied to functions not actually existing currently?

Making sweeping generalizations about the stock market based on Tesla is probably a bad idea, after the break. 

3rd gear:

If they were indigenous they would have been. 

Except that this was in Canada, which is why the pilots did not get shot in the aftermath.

The way this search is going, I’m not prepared to deal with whatever dirt they dig up on Levar Burton.

I see an asshole trying to victim-blame and defend another asshole.

Don’t you fucking try to ‘both sides’ this.

I’d double-star this if I could. It drives me nuts when people speed through neighborhoods and parking lots.

lol, i always slow down to 20mph through school zones during the day when the lights are flashing. about 1/10 cars will honk, flash their lights, and flick me off as they illegally cross the double yellow and pass me doing at least 40...

rapist: that woman wasn’t wearing a bra, so it is her fault to induce me and rape her.
you make a fine defense lawyer

Bullshit. The dude was turning into his driveway and the dude in the truck tried to pass him on the left to shoot the gap. That was 110% the fault of the truck because he was driving entirely too fast for the situation and tried to make an illegal pass on a neighborhood street.  Fuck him, and I hope they throw the…

Yeah, no crosswalks or speed bumps in my area until rich white folks started moving in.

I genuinely believe that speedbumps should be absolutely mandatory around all parks, playgrounds and schools - as a starting point. The number of times I’ve slowed down to 30 (kph) in a playground zone, only to have some troglodytic half-wit ride my ass for the next 500 meters boggles the mind.

Clearly you’re not from Detroit. All that would do is create a “Dominance Lane”.  Hope you like playing chicken.

What you said is kinda blaming the victim here... even if the driver wasn’t signalling a turn the car slowing down with its brake lights on was more than enough to alert anybody behind to slow down so it’s 100% the truck driver’s fault.

The calculus is two deaths then a stop light gets installed.

that’s generally the story. “It takes a death for safety to be considered.”

People speed because the road is wide open with few parked cars or other sight blockers.
