Thought that was only seen in third world countries like mine but seems to happen everywhere. I see farmworkers (often 20 or more) being carried in wooden bed trucks like this and I always thought to myself how dangerous that is if they ever happen to get on an accident. Damn this is sad.

They are lawyers.  Professional courtesy.

Do a Top Gear. Anchor it to the beach at low tide, come back later and see what’s left.

This isn’t necessarily an Autopilot problem... I see two shitty California drivers.

I wouldn’t even do that.  I’d start with chemical resistant Tyvek and a full face respirator.  I wouldn’t even dilute the bleach we’ll be using to spray this thing down with.  After it’s been completely soaked and has baked in the sun for an hour, then you blast it with the power washer.

Appears that Georgias Forensic Science program is rather lacking in scientific technique and process.

One of the “Flying Finns”, the memories will live on, may he rest in peace.

I’m definitely still saying Marge/Tesla is more at fault than the truck here. Even if the truck didn’t signal at all - we’ll completely ignore the fact that we know it was - if you’re going appreciably faster than the traffic you’re trying to merge in to would you not be paying hawk-like attention? People change lanes

RVs have long represented this conflict between high-design cool and volume-maximized and often cost-minimized boxes. This is pretty far on the former end of the spectrum, though the thing on the rear is figuratively as well as literally over the top, unless perhaps you are using it as a food truck that sells Buffalo

Nice price!

In 2021 everything is a camera but the camera in your cellphone is vastly different from what goes on NASA spacecraft. The cameras that go on NASA spacecraft have to be extremely hardened to survive the rigors of rocket launches, deep space radiation, and, in the case of rovers and landers, reentry. They cannot use

yeah except natural gas failed in texas. they only winterized the pipes, not the wellheads or the power plants. so the well heads froze. then more people started using their gas heaters leading to low pressure in the pipes at the plants, causing them to shut down. wouldnt have done jack for the state. shit we even

Today’s turn 6 has a little bit of that (albeit at a slower speed). It’s banked more steeply on the inside, so if you are fighting for position and don’t manage to take the inside you can get sent off pretty easily.

My understanding is that turn was almost solely responsible for the change. The track was a bit too fast so they needed the extra turns to slow things up.

I do belive it:

I have read as far down as kinja will let me and a thing occurred to me, if towing a boat is the primary justifcation for owning a giant truck, why is the boat in need of towing? I have always found that boats are much more useful, almost entertaining even, when they are in water.

Well, this should be obvious, but the Cup cars doesn’t exactly have the same stopping power as sports cars and prototypes.

This was a road tractor, as in tractor trailer, not a farm tractor. Unlike a train, you still needed to street the truck when you were shifting.

Sure. Back in the day Laguna Seca used to be a much simpler track with few right turns and no hairpins. It’s much better now.

i stopped reading as soon as i read “microsoft account”. nope, local account all the way
