I totally agree with your second paragraph. People with coal rolling trucks should have an 100% tax and give the savings or a discount to the Electric cars or something. 

Have you looked at the police report drawing? If you had, you would notice that the one ramp also looks like it is an exit ramp at the same time. I can’t tell if this is accurate unfortunately, but you could see that the Mercedez basically waited till the last minute to exit off of this ramp. As for the semi, he was…

She was obviously able to get credit for the first loan and making her payments on it. Nothing about the article says she was not able to “afford” her vehicle. just because you borrow money to pay off something, doesn’t mean you can’t afford it. I would love to see you say that to someone who has been paying their…

Agreed, I can see how complex that could have been. I guess what I see more as an issue is the manufactures constantly trying to out due themselves by building bigger engines and bigger vehicles which in the end use up way more gas and end up polluting more. Instead of trying to limit the amount of big vehicles out…

It’s already been said, but I will say it again. The auto industry is equally to blame. Saying that there was no policies in place so it isn’t their fault is like saying you can steal as long as there is no laws saying you can’t.

Honestly, if her credit was any good, she should be able to roll that negative equity into her new car deal. I did this not even a month ago. Obviously it depends on the amount of negative equity. I only needed to roll in $800 which was peanuts. 

The two kids racing are idiots and they obviously deserve to be punished for this, but questioning the responsibilities of the pedestrians is not victim blaming. It’s just a question. I agree that I Like Cars’s response is a very poor response. Pedestrians with children should be able to stroll along on any side walk…

A sales person trying to over sell a feature? That can’t be! /sarcasm

You really have a way of twisting a story and making it seem alright to disobey rules or directions.

I can’t tell if you are serious or not. Trying to find every excuse possible for letting people just do what they want instead of following orders given to them. I’m even surprised you didn’t pull out the “racist” card.

To be honest, this is very hard to tell if the dealership is being scummy or if there was possibly a real issue with the contract and it needed to be re-signed to legitimize it. I work in the industry and see it quite frequently.

I’m not stating they are they best platforms out there, but they are doing what they are also meant to do. Which is look at how a current industry is working, such as taxis or hotels, and try to bring a new way of doing things. Do I agree on how they are trying to bi-pass some of the laws already set in place, no.…

Thank you for the clarification. I did not know about the IRS’ guidance rules. this helps clarify your earlier comment and does nullify my reply!

How would it not be implied? You are trying to make a comment on how Uber sets their rates and it being unfair for drivers.

You seem to not realize that the founding industries that these new companies are trying to change have also lobbied for rules to better suit them. This just happened many moons ago.

You are missing the key point in his comment, “willing”. To many, willing to urn less than minimum wage on a job you have complete control on when and how often you want to spend time doing this job, is a lot better than earning minimum wage flipping burgers during shifts you really don’t want to work. Uber might…

And you think Taxi drivers have a day on the rates being charged? Even that has a limit set by most city bi-laws. Some even make it so that there are fixed prices depending on what location you are driving to.

Wrong. If you are a Freelance artist, you will take on jobs that you feel would appropriately pay you for your time. If you feel as though it is not worth your time, you find another contract or job.

All of these systems, not just Tesla’s Autopilot, rely on camera’s reading the lines on the ground. Any time there is poor line visibility or just odd markings, the systems doesn’t know what to do anymore. It could either shut off the system and no longer follow any lines, which isn’t a great option, or it can try to…

Well, if he acknowledges it and understands that there are limits, what is the issue. Why should anyone sue Tesla, when someone knew the risks and limitations of a system.
