That giant digital dash is an abomination.

Well you see, they’re a corporation. How can a corporation commit a crime??? Only humans can do that! Sigh....

For today’s soap box about elections having consequences, POTUS nominates the chair & vice chair of the NTSB. While you may not like any candidate, it is important to remember who they are going to be putting in positions like this. Seeing as Trump appointed a Verizon lawyer to run the FCC, someone who spent her life…

That’s all these festivals are anymore, by all appearances/accounts.

I worked for NS for 27 years as an engineer, Roadforeman of engines and dispatcher. There is no more (pardon the pun) toxic place to work. They are more interested in firing employees than moving freight. Roads blocked for hours or days due to train length and shortage of employees, with PSR, they are also not…

Music industry person checking in: SXSW consistently fucks over performers, and their sole goal is to make money for themselves.

Welcome back.

An acquaintance of mine and I both think GM is showing these heretofore-unreleased concepts in order to test the waters for a potential Pontiac revival, likely as a sub-brand of Chevrolet (not unlike what they did with the Hummer and GMC). It’d save them having to do a full brand and dealer network launch.

It’s the cars and their drivers who introduce mortal danger into the public space. They should ALWAYS be responsible for any damage, injury or death to vulnerable users brought upon by their use of their machine. No child, elderly human, pedestrian, cyclist, e-cyclist or e-scooter user should be held at the same level…

While I loathe the "BUT I NEED MY WIDE ASSED PIECE OF SHIT TO FEEL SAFE" crowd, I will say the problem is rarely outright malice. It's more often distracted driving or even just straight up incompetence. People don't understand that a bigger and heavier car has a longer stopping distance and larger turn radius. And…

Everybody blames the drivers because the drivers are at fault. There have been two fatalities this month in Cambridge because some jackass in a UHaul didn’t check his mirrors or use his turn signal.

Non-scientific hypothesis, but the personalities attracted to these kind of trucks are also more likely to antagonize cyclists, thereby increasing the risks for an accident to occur.

Drivers in the machines capable of causing death bear a greater responsibly to drive carefully.  They misbehave, they hurt others.

Just require CDLs for vehicles over a certain size/weight.

My most radical car take is that pickup trucks should only be available for commercial usage if they aren’t going to scale back on the size (which they won’t)

Haven’t read the article, but I’m gonna automatically assume that the already known fact of the high ass hood line is the root cause of all of this...

Lol it’s a Bikini coffee shop. The state of washington has a bunch of them, and you’re paying extra for the “show” kinda like how you’re paying restaurant prices at Hooters for Tyson frozen chicken wings. He knew exactly why he was going there, what the prices were, and what kind of establishment that was. He CHOSE…

Hit the nail on the head.

The fact that it’s a bikini/Hooters-style shop is KIND OF IMPORTANT TO THE STORY, WRITER. At least in helping readers realize that the customer is, you know...that guy.

Could drinking 32 oz of coffee possibly contribute to why this dude is constantly at Rage DEFCON 1?  Good grief that’s a bit too much stimulation.
