Without doing any research, I think the deaths were mainly caused by a lack of sanitation for some that causes something else to an already weakened immune system. Well that’s my guess anyways, perhaps they were on the ventilators too long, but I mean if you can’t breath, you can’t breath. Had everyone seriously…

“Libertarians are like house cats. They are convinced of their fierce independence while utterly dependent on a system they don’t appreciate or understand.”

Libertarians tend to think that public goods like parking meters should be monetized because “socialism!” But as we can see they are far less efficient than having the parking authority operate them. Paying the civil service wages and benefits can be less expensive, even in Chicago.

Libertarians are the stupidest people you ever meet and their ‘ideas’ are based on the simple fact that they never think things through.

This is pretty much the Libertarian wet dream, which is why we should all recoil in horror at libertarians and their insane arguments and claims.

Can we stop taking Ford’s word for their reasoning behind their decisions and actually bring in some real data?

Here’s the thing though. It’s not an absurd claim. Most people - with the exception of EV zealots - have no trouble believing it. Because, as I mentioned above, most people are literally in the situation where they don’t know where they would charge if they had to drive an EV every day. It only comes up when a true…

Not meaning to sound snarky, but - if I’m not already an EV user, you’re suggesting that while standing at the counter of a rental car company, tired after a long flight with other tired cranky people behind me, I’m supposed to download and app and check my route and destination before deciding what to rent?  Poly’s…

Ford execs: who could have seen this coming?

It was deciding...

I think there’s also a certain extent to which being in a car enables anti-social behavior in a way a bike doesn’t. It’s a lot easier to be a jerk with 150+hp, 3000lbs of metal and glass, and concealment providing a sense of anonymity than it is with your own two legs and exposure to your immediate environment. Not to…

Despite what car apologists might be thinking about this, I think that there’s a definite correlation that was already highlighted, and I know this firsthand. But what is also important to note is people cycling in cities are also more likely to be local residents of that area, which means there’s a stake in how the…

I think they started off the same, then an hour amongst other drivers and the idea of murder mayhem and violence seems like a really good plan

Relax, the woman was just disrupted.

Car insurance is a product you are forced to buy if you want to drive on US roads, the companies that sell insurance are not all that well regulated, and they can arbitrarily decide to jack up insurance rates or even choose to not cover certain car models as seen here. They also do absolutely everything they can to…

Why do all boats have the worst speaker covers. Looks like something I’d see in the back of a 92 civic on bags.

once the donut is installed on the vehicle that the driver gets absolutely zero reminders from the dash?

Run flat tires on all the cars is a recipe for Altimas Rogues going 90mph on four flat tires.

I’ve never found an answer to my question concerning stability control. What would you do in your situation you describe if you had stability control? Are we supposed to just treat it like ABS brakes as in stop the pedal and they didn’t do the job? What stability control should we just put the steering wheel in the…

For the most part, run flats are garbage. More expensive, they often wear faster, and have a harsher ride.  Also, there are scenarios where even a run flat can get shredded beyond drivability.

I don’t know what the answer is here, but it certainly is not “run flat tires for all the cars”
