Here’s what I don’t get: there’s a camera facing him, it runs the whole time. Can’t someone go back into the video feed and see what happens?

Major props to the drivers on this one. Having owned a Corvair, I can vouch for how bizarrely it behaves in low traction situations. Stepping on the brakes in snow causes the whole car to slide perpendicular to where you’re traveling. Great for parallel parking, but not much else.
I'm surprised nobody had mentioned the Hagerty YouTube channel. Absolutely killer production value, and some of my favorite presenters. Sam Smith, Matt Farah, Jason Cammisa, etc.
I got into watching Car S.O.S. on Disney+ ... it is quite good. There’s a full 7 seasons there. Basically, they “steal” a car from a deserving person (usually terminally ill) restore it, and surprise them with it. It’ll probably make you weepy a few times.
I’ve got the Nesco. Paid more than $100 for it last summer due to Covid surge pricing, but so far it’s been working well. I needed it then to help freeze a bumper crop of golden raspberries, and it worked well for that, also for dealing with good prices on food at Costco (where, BTW, you can get a good deal on a LARGE…

It’s not the “big o”, but the ‘big boob’ on the front page of the site :) What is fine for women’s lib is considered harassment by HR!

Hey Mercedes, just wanted to mention that I like most everything you’re doing here on Jalopnik, including this tool stuff, and you’ve been a great addition to the staff. I’ve already bought a couple of things you mentioned too. I hope they’re paying you enough to keep you around. Keep up the good work!
Oh so now we’re back to NSFW? And no warning! Yikes!

“Born to be Wild” - it’s so cliche.
I mean.... they surround and beat on a cop car without having any backup by him. What would you expect to happen?
There are some after photos out there showing the police vehicle had the back glass completely broken out and some trim torn off. The crowd was not just standing around peaceably singing hymns.
Lol, so first of all, the title of the article is still misleading. I never said you couldn’t “have multiple opinions about one event,” so...?
Windows break, anyone in the crowd could be armed, molotov cocktails are a thing. Should he have floored it? No but was there danger, absolutely. Saying he should sit there and let them break into the cruiser is akin to allowing the idiot mob into the Capitol because its not their building. Claiming he was in no…
Based upon videos I’ve seen online of street takeovers, the only difference in this instance is that it’s a police Explorer interceptor running over a spectator rather than a stanced Infiniti G35 losing control while doing a donut. Sick of those idiots giving car enthusiasts a bad image.
F that, your title is horribly wrong. It should be something more along the lines of “Mob Surrounds and Attacks Police Vehicle, 2 Injured.”
You can literally hear (one person says “oh they hitting on the cop car”) and see what’s going on in the video, in addition to other witnesses.
I’d have busted my way out of…
Hold up, so you go out doing a street takeover, attack a cop car as a mob, get run over, and the police get shit for it?
I should start doing this. I could totally be a millionaire on the settlement money.
