It is in the article. It was going to do the lane change, but determined that would cause an (at fault) accident. Instead it held its lane, which resulted in a (not at fault) accident.

The first thing any designer learns is that good design is inherently polarizing.

The grille looks great on some of their lineup and questionable on others. Regardless of what you think though, Lexus is doing something right, because we are sitting here arguing about it.

That is my neighborhood. Literally impassible in snow, and stays that way forever. We get no sun, so stuff just reflows and becomes ice sheets for a good week after it snowed.

I have driven through blizzards. I ‘can handle snow’. When we get some here? I stay home.

I have always liked Infiniti’s exteriors, but their interiors are definitely terrible. The new Q60 interior is so bad it ruined any interest I had in buying the car - I am no longer interested even if depreciation hits their used values like crazy.

Looks like someone wasn’t wearing their seatbelt.

Been there, done that.

I think you mean “including”.

Chances are your drawings looked exactly like this - you just thought they looked like a car, just like these kids probably think these are pretty accurate representations.

Hell, even MY old drawings are about on par with these - and I get paid to draw.

Hazards (or flickering of the running lights) is a universal trucker “Thanks”. Flicking the lows is a ‘merge’ and the highs is a ‘coming up fast’.

Everything I have heard about the breathalyzer interlock devices is that they basically amount to a scam to milk people into oblivion, banking on the fact that nobody will come to the defense of a drunk driver.

Compound that with the issue we have been having locally about sober drivers being given DUIs and it makes it…

We lost a student in the Architecture program here because he left to go home drowsy after pulling one the routine all-nighters we have. Got t-boned at 50mph, dead at the scene.

Just one of the reasons why I routinely sleep in my car. Even if it is uncomfortable.

Yeah I really hope this trend continues until I graduate and (hopefully) get a job which will allow me to purchase one of these off-lease beauties.

The problem is (usually) other drivers. Cops always assume the truck is responsible (because license), but even then last I heard only something like 20% of accidents involving trucks are ruled as the fault of the truck. Shit, just a few of the things I have on camera would blow your mind.

Firstly, the proportions provided by this mosaic are clearly incorrect.

Secondly, those would be some fairly dramatic cosmetic changes:

Watching the side impact videos I cannot help but wonder why nobody (Volvo) has developed central airbag systems - surely the people flopping all around towards each other is a fairly dangerous situation.

I once averaged nearly 40mpg in a tractor trailer trying to make it to the closest authorized fuel location.

I also ran out of fuel in said truck once. In a DOT scale house. That was exciting.

Oddly enough I almost never draw cars... and those I do either never get finished or never look good (usually both actually).

I have a lot of other really awesome art though.

More the other way around (Sauce: Designer)

Sleek minimalism is the go-to thing for design these days, but you would not be able to tell looking at most cars. Why? Execs saying “We need to be EDGY!”

Easy example is Toyota/Lexus. The big boss decided they needed less boring, more cool, edgy vehicles. What happened to…

They kinda have to go without the B pillar if the target is Mercedes.

Completely different design principles.
