Yeah, this is definitely one of the “slippery slope” type of legal cases. I don’t find that there is anything in any vehicle insurance policy that I’ve ever seen that could hold the insurance company on the hook for anything other than the driving of the insured (not including comprehensive and collision coverage…

Let’s see:

The article says 782 lbs curb-weight. That’s not lighter in any real sense. GoldWings are remarkably agile given their size (weight and length).

The touring bikes carry their weight pretty low and generally have low seat heights so it’s all about balance and being comfortable with the bike. I’m only 5'4" and I’ve ridden a LOT of very large touring bikes including H-D CVO Ultra Glide models and Triumph’s giant-sized Rocket III. As long as you don’t lean the…

“Purple Mountain”? Methinks the owner is compensating for something but I [don’t] want to put my finger on it.

Well, that certainly escalated quickly from “hmm, getting warm in here” to “ouch! ouch! ouch! it’s lava-hot in this bitch!

Or out a window if this was Russia. Man, those people (read: “Vladimir Putin”) really love their defenestrations!

Um, condolences to her family and friends.

Okay, so after this happened, you’re still 16 years-old: did you keep making this little drift maneuver? <reaches for the popcorn>

Last January, a Navy F-35C was lost in the South China Sea while attempting a landing on an aircraft carrier (it was later recovered).

And I have to believe that it would also gain a lot of IndyCar fans, and maybe even some NASCAR fans, too, to watch a(nother) US-based team, especially if there is an American driver. I’m not sure how that earns the F1 circus income but at least it’d mean there’s little chance of F1 races in America not being sold-out…

I, uh, um, well, no—I did not know this.

I wonder if part of the revenue dilution fear is also fear that as a new team, with the kind of resources that Andretti-Cadillac will have/already has, and the concessions that new teams get, that they will be immediate contenders in a way that Haas has never fully achieved and capture a larger share of the season’s…

Yes, I think the authorities immediately examined the car’s “black box” to determine that the driver either didn’t brake, sped up, and or deliberately steered (or didn’t) the car over the edge.

Every joke is funnier when you have to explain it...

Uh, no. I was watching live and when they (MSNBC) were able to get the footage of what happened, there was no “lunge” at Gaetz (though the man is one of the top 10 most punchable House Republicans). Rogers walks down the aisle, leans towards Gaetz (though Gaetz is about six feet away), and then Burchett awkwardly…

“An incredible 110, 236 Americans died due to Fentanyl overdose in the U.S. during a 12-month period, according to the CDC.”

When I was in my teens, I would have killed for one of these! Nowadays, and a number of broken bones later (including a broken tibia and fibula at a skatepark) and a growing fear of breaking more, I couldn’t really see riding one of these at more than about 20-ish mpg, even with full motorcycle roadracing leathers and…

It’s a way better idea than these (onewheel.com), on which (or more accurately, off which) at least 4 people have died:

If I understood correctly, that list was only for objects on the Moon, not objects/debris in any space orbits that need to be cleaned up.
