A BMW badge?

Tech, shmech, they build cars, either they can make money building and selling cars or they can’t. This “it’s a growth stock, they’re spending on R&D” has just gotten old.

“The one who thinks his Mustang is special.”

I’ll give you a couple of things:

Actually, after the initial furor, and in the years following the scandal, it was pretty conclusively proven that Toyota was not at fault, and that the fatalities were either due to people mistaking the gas pedal for the brake (Malcolm Gladwell had a podcast featured on this site about that recently, IIRC), or the…

The juror saying directly that she was hoping for one specific outcome is somewhat disturbing to me.

Except instead of making the engines better, the engineers simply design them to pass the laws. This is not the right way to do this and you’d decrease emissions by a much greater amount if you GAVE THE CONSUMER A REASON TO BUY AN ECONOMICAL CAR. Forcing the car companies to build cars that no one wants or likes is…

I agree, but we can’t forget who bears that cost. It all comes back to the consumer and the tax payer.

Furthermore, filtering is legal in most countries. This isn’t some radical new measure that California is forcing upon its 4-wheeled drivers. It’s finally catching up to safety measures in place around the word.

What if you always checked your mirrors before leaving a lane in other states too?

As a 2 wheeled motorist, it sure sounds like lanespiitting is making you a more aware and focused 4-wheeled motorist. Good.

When I see a biker (push cycle and motor) I always assume they are going to do something stupidly and aggressively illegal and give them plenty of room, it too has saved me a lot of road rage and kept things civil.

At-least the auto makers he’s calling out can make a profit.

oh my god fucking enough. Take it to Gawker, or reddit, or anywhere that gives a fuck about politics. This is Jalopnik.

You’re not clever, you’re not cute, you’re not poignant, you’re just another annoying mouthbreather who doesn’t actually have anything to contribute to the discussion. Nobody here gives a fuck who…

Wait, so you’re saying we that we can say that Sergio should have been paying more attention while at the same time saying that FCA designed an unnecessarily confusing system that could lead to injury? We don’t have to pick a side?! We could even talk rationally about it?! You may have just solved not just this…

Reminder to everyone: Culpability in civil suits isn’t binary. They calculate percentage of responsibility to each party. It’s rare that one party is found to be 100% liable.

She’s a good bike, loves her rider
Loves wheelies and stopies too
She’s a good bike, crazy ‘bout track days
Loves apex’s and her rider too

It’s a long day livin’ in track garages
There’s a race track runnin’ through the yard
And I’m a bad rider, ‘cause I don’t even miss her
I’m a bad boy for breakin’ her forks

And I’m free,…
