yes, but the press guys, not affiliated with the teams should be photographing the shit out of everything that comes out of a garage.

I am constantly amazed at the low quantity of photos in the F1 press, even in technical articles talking about what the engineers are trying to do with the air.

how is it that Kia dealers have an almost universally terrible reputation for shitty sales tactics?

I mean, basically all dealers are fucking horrible, but it seems that Kia dealers are next level.

what gives?

meh, convict them then sue them for remuneration of costs incurred.

administrative asset forfeiture is bullshit no matter who/what it is applied to.

there isn’t a “self driving” system in the world that can handle that.

6 lanes worth of pavement all covered in 2" of slush with 2 lanes full of parked cars, no lane markings visible, yadda yadda.

wow, you are dumb. Atlanta, DC, Philly could all do it easily. Denver could do it, 

DC, take the federal district between the river and the back side of the capitol and E-H street and make it pedestrian only. increase the number and frequency of busses and routes.

Philly race street to lombard between the rivers.

Atlanta…

exactly.  

That is 1 street that is less than 1/4 mile long. imagine for a moment how much nicer the north end would be if the whole thing were pedestrian only (or at least everything inside cross street and commercial street)

so it was pure incompetence on the part of the police I guess.  shocking.

what are you smoking? because you are speaking gibberish.

they don’t seem to have an issue with this in europe, where it is common. and yeah, no they don’t get to park and idle (there are already laws about that in many places), they get to leave..

yes.  there needs to be a corresponding expansion of public transit any time something like this is enacted.  

and if a law banning vehicles in the city core between 6 am and midnight were in place, the cops would have had a clear basis for arresting all the drivers and impounding their trucks.

as it was there was no clear law saying they couldn’t do what they were doing.

not at all infeasible. just requires a change of mindset.

many large cities, particularly in Germany, have large sections of the city with no cars/trucks allowed between 6am and midnight

pretty much every city in europe does this.  they allow delivery trucks between midnight and 6am usually.  construction and repair vehicles (like plumbers etc) get permits for daytime access which are strictly enforced.

not really. a large industry of for lease/sale parking structures and car rental complexes on the border of the ban area at/near public transport hubs would spring up quickly.  for an example take a look at any major german city with a central “Walkplatz” or no cars zone.  parking structures get built at major entry…

there are many practical reasons why a total ban of cars and trucks in even a city like NYC, Chicago, Boston or other major cities with decent to good public transit is not feasible.

businesses need to get deliveries, things need to get repaired, buildings need to get built.

that said, it is entirely feasible to ban…

forget the “in this market” bullshit.

“in this market” only a complete fucking idiot buys a car that they don’t absolutely have to buy.  “in this market” fix what you have as long as it is less than $5k and wait for the market to return to sanity.

it’s too much money, so ND, but I really like it anyway.
