I LITERALLY (Gen-X and prior ‘literally’!) counted over 100 assorted Teslas on my way to my local motorcycle mechanic and back - all city riding in San Francisco. Most appeared pretty new.

Google Maps (and basically all mapping companies including stalwarts like Rand-McNally) uses place names defined by the USGS and the US Board on Geographic Names (BGN), at least in the US and its coastal water. It has to use a standard, in case of name disputes (which happens once in a while - my example of a town

Despite Google’s strict adherence here, the company doesn’t really have to follow the executive order.”

This. 100% this.

Oh yeah, the other thing is PRACTICE. Not just you, but anyone else (e.g. significant other) who drives your car. Take them through the steps to find the jack AND the jacking points. Also the correct steps to take a wheel off and put the spare on.

I ride a bike and over many, many years, I’ve fixed countless flats with a simple plug. Once fixed, I ride it until normal replacement time (i.e. the tire is nearly bald). Never had a plug go wrong, but once I decided to take it to a shop, remove the tire and replace my externally-applied plug with an internal plug,

This SPECIFIC incident has nothing to do with Trump. Not even things he did the first time around, except insofar as ALL recent presidents have underfunded the FAA and ATC.

Is your heated gear battery-powered or are you running off the bike?

“...when spectators can walk right up to the racing surface.”

Barn finds.

Aspen uses (or used to use) Saabs...

I’ve seen some weird cop bikes on the California freeways. I assume CHP, but maybe local sheriff/PD which happened to be on the freeway.

You are 100% correct.

So the (very!) early results seem to show that congestion pricing broadly reduces traffic?
