This site is constantly spewing far left nonsense.

As someone who thinks the cops are douchy, out-of-control fuckwads most of the time... what the fuck is this bullshit article. She hit a cop car. She got a ticket. Seems pretty fucking straightforward to me. Don't wanna get a careless driving ticket? Don't run into someone else's car. And WTF is this "I don't think I…

Why would you NOT write a ticket in that situation? Running into the back of another car is the definition of careless driving. What if she had run over a worker at the car wash instead of just running into another car?

People wouldn’t run away from their job so fast if the company would just put a a stake in the ground and stay on a course of action rather than starting out with pie in the sky dream growth numbers and then completely reversing course when they don’t pan out to be 100% true.

Having worked for an OEM (and then at other much smaller companies that went through their systems upgrades with consistently terrible (but predictable) outcomes) I think it’s hard for most people to grasp how hard those transitions in the business are for companies that large and that multi-national. The old standards…

Automakers, you folks really need to shape up if you want to get these nerds on your teams. Sure, they’re geeks, but you’re going to need them.

I was getting nervous.  The slideshow as getting reeealll close to the end before I saw The Eliminator.

Weight?

It would need to run on the blood of the poors to get his tent to pop. 

I think both can be right — sure, those early SUVs sold in large numbers because those were the only ones on the market, and a lot of people WERE discovering them to be useful and as a replacement for the station wagon/Minivan. But after 2000 or so the competition went ape-shit crazy with EVERYONE offering ruggedized…

Wouldn’t the title track be Kenny Loggin’s “Footloose”?  You want to talk about soundtracks that dude dominated soundtracks- Caddyshack, Top Gun, Over the Top, One Fine Day, etc.

Oh, but the Footloose soundtrack is a masterpiece, isn’t it? (The title track, Let’s Hear It For The Boy...)

Maybe The Atlantic article mentions this (I couldn’t read it behind the paywall) but I’ve always had a theory that post 9/11 Americans started buying SUVs because we, as a society, started harboring deeply seated but basically unexpressed feelings of insecurity. A rugged SUV became a form of protection — it could hold…

I’ve said this same thing before, in a city setting there should be no reason why anyone has bright lights on their cars. I get more glare and starbursts from the silly SUV/Trucks driving around than any billboard...Also Tesla drivers for some reason can’t see at night so they drive around with their brights on -__-

Even with all the discounts applied, $50k + is still a bunch of money for a mediocre vehicle in a very competitive segment.

“it’s illegal if it’s bright enough to get in the way of your driving.”

The thing that really kills me about all that nonsense is that people are putting their kids at risk. It’s fine and dandy for an adult to make a stupid, ill-informed decision for themselves, they can all go die if that’s what they want to do. But children don’t have that agency. Putting innocent children at risk…

I mean the backup camera isn’t great, but maybe it’s cause I’m an old and remember the pre backup camera days, but I can see plenty fine form that image to back up.

First Gear: The media has GOT to stop equating “some dude skimming a few Google search results” and “scientists painstakingly subjecting a falsifiable hypothesis to experiment.”
