To me the videos are proof that comprehensive state inspections are a good thing. None of the cars in those videos have Massachusetts plates and there is a reason. If I have a wheel bearing with even a little bit of wobble it’ll get an reject. Check engine light anytime in the last 100 miles? Reject. extensive rust on…

Such drama. We’re incredibly early in the EV adoption process. I bet there were people in 1923 who wouldn’t be able to imagine a world built around the internal combustion engine. “Who’s gonna make millions of miles of paved roads? You? And oil? Good Lord, there isn’t enough oil in the earth’s crust to fuel a billion…

Within the London congestion zone, there has been a 20 mph speed limit for three years, which has reduced collisions with serious injury or death by 25%, and accidents involving pedestrians decreased by as much as 63%. No doubt other big cities will have taken notice of this.

Actual infrastructure is proven to be of benefit to pedestrians and cyclists, paint etc. has been proven to do nothing. Chevrons for bikes is proven to be even worse as drivers don’t understand them.

Good.

*sings* You picked a fine to leave me loose wheel...

True, but I didn’t have to sell my body into indentured servitude to ride a motorcycle.

Elizabeth, I’ve been reading and commenting on Jalopnik for what feels like a decade now.

Fancy Kristen probably needs a dinghy for her yacht, this could work.

Agreed. What a badass! I love adventure, but also love my big, soft bed at night.

fucking amazing!

Madman is selling Rob short.  He’s at minimum, a garbage bag full of nuts.

One of my absolute favorites.... From car stuff to battery tech, to woodworking. He mixes information and explanation with humor and open admittance of mistakes. I love when he does a project or gets a car, and admits that its a bad idea and he wouldn’t do it again.  

I love Roberts channel, super quirky and funny, but also super smart. He definitely deserves more attention and views than he gets.

I, on the other hand, am more interested when I hear something described as “socialist,” because that means it’s good for people. Crazy “socialist” concepts including housing the homeless, affordable and effective public transit, affordable housing with rent controls, universal healthcare, parental leave, having more…

Seriously; most of the folks I know with nice cars have a fun ride because they live in a place where they don’t need to have this massive expense applied just to affording to live.

This.

Describes most of the things I love.
