Here are a few pics taken from my garden (the ship is roughly 10km away), the first one taken shortly after it ran aground:

Those two look nothing alike. 

I hope Cadillac’s ambitions for its electric program are modest. Tesla sold about as many cars globally last year as the Chevy Equinox sold in the U.S. alone.

Agreed, I think of myself as a good little liberal, but the hate on anyone above a struggling blogger is nauseating. Also at 10K for 14 tickets, they sure as hell aren’t flying business.

Picture 30 guys in lab coats furiously scribbling notes on a clipboard as they watch a 2-year-old repeatedly drop the tumbler in a mall parking lot.

Honestly, fuck you.

I will refer to this article the next time this website publishes a take that modern cars are too complicated/heavy/electronic/etc.

If I recall, it’s because our headlight laws date back to the 60's - and they mandate a separate high and low beam function - so any of those super cool matrix lights they use over in Europe, which just dim a portion of the light when an oncoming car is detected, are illegal here because they are technically always

As a kid growing up in the 80's it always seemed to me that anything Japanese- whether it was a boom box, car, TV set or whatever was approximately 20 years into the future. My Mom had a 1985 Camry and the stereo in it was insane: 200 teeny little buttons and knobs, all of which made neat, satisfying little clicky

1st gear: Some perspective seems in order.

How may crashes are there per 100 million miles? Without context of death rate in accidents the numbers don’t mean much for car safety.

One of the best ways to prevent deaths from accidents is to prevent the accident in the first place. This is solved with education. Make it MUCH more difficult to obtain a driver license, or make it a tiered system (as to not negatively affect the lower income brackets) where a beginner permit allows you to use

Neutral: it’s probably gonna end up as more expensive tech, but really, updating whatever is holding back our headlights should be priority number 1... There’s a joke about our headlight tech being in the dark ages somewhere in here, but I’m too tired to figure it out

It's hard to see air, yes.

That odd moment of feels when you realize that the Jawa Sandcrawler is literally more aerodynamic than your own car...

These Amazing Trucks Are Like Flat-Earthers For Aerodynamics”

A lot longer than you think. I spent 3 months in Germany in a rental car. Every chance I got, I would hit the road and explore. And that’s not normal in Europe

There has to be a higher barrier to entry to getting a gun than filling out a 4473 and being on your way. Even something as simple as an online course and test of basic “dos and don’ts” might go a long way in limiting some of this egregious behavior.

“Should we initiate a recall? Take the number of vehicles in the field, A, multiply by the probable rate of failure, B, multiply by the average out-of-court settlement, C. A times B times C equals X. If X is less than the cost of a recall, we don’t do one.”

It’s Canadian irony, so only like 80% as ironic as ours with the exchange rate.
