Hot water is no fucking joke. You can look up scold charts that tell you how long skin needs to be in contact with a water of a certain temperature to receive what kind of burns. Above 155F, first degree burns are instant and 3rd degree and it only takes 1 second for a permanent 3rd degree (the worst). 180F is the…

This. Those burns were horrific. And the lady originally just wanted them to cover her medical bills. When McDonalds refused, she was forced to lawyer up and take them for everything she could.  And McDonalds deserved it for being recalcitrant shitheads.

That whole McDonalds story is a tremendous example of how a corporation would prefer to dump money into PR than actually do the right thing after they screw up because they deemed the PR cheaper.

Oh man, great idea. Get a cheap lease on a Nissan Leaf or whatever, and put the Hummer on Turo. That’s maybe the only way out of this.

Wealth is synonymous with luck, more than anything else.

Agreed.  Seems like foolish oversight to not have physical, mechanical access in the event of an emergency or malfunction.

Every car: electric, hybrid, or ICE, should be legally required to always have at least one 100% mechanical lock and door mechanism.

Good on her for valuing the life of her child over her car window.

That’s an insult to dip shits.

$4,200 on making it look exactly the same.

As we’re seeing of late, judges are *the* battleground. He’s a significant reason Biden’s been able to appoint so many.

Is it hypocrisy though? We -expect- Republicans to be the bad guy. We -expect- the Democrats to be the party of law and order (they even say so themselves!)

Well at least he knows how to drive, if poorly. Does the orange protoplasm known as “the Donald” still remember which way to turn the steering wheel?

Yeah, double edged sword. *Lots* of construction zones aren’t ‘consistent’ and hey, things move.

The driverless cars are immune from getting tickets and are taking off from the cops.

Waymo said in a statement shared with AZ Central the the issues faced by the robotaxi were as a result of “inconsistent construction signage” in the area
