You realize that in a world with no regulation we would need to spend pretty much all of our time researching products to purchase or invest in? Individually doing the same work of the regulatory agencies we created to solve these problems in the first place. Without ANY regulation most providers would simply lie…

How is it reasonable? Are you afraid the sound of the knocking will somehow cause lethal tinnitus? If you’re in this situation what are you afraid the biker is going to do?

Knocking on someone’s window is not deadly force nor is standing around in motorcycle gear. The fact that 56 people (as of this posting) seem to agree with you is horrifying but this is ‘Merica so feel free to shoot your way out of these comments.

When gas prices were high I’m sure they justified increasing rates because fewer drivers on the road meant lower revenue from premiums.

That went much better than expected.

In 1st world countries people working at a service shop are required to pass certifications they must keep maintained so there is a reasonable assumption that work performed at a shop is done correctly. Contrast this with the US where no real industry standards exists, a shop might have extensively trained staff or it …

People try stuff like this in other industries all of the time

The market for human drivers insurance will likely shrink as more autonomous cars come online. While payouts might decrease, premiums will have to increase to provide the same level of coverage.

Lobbying won’t be necessary, the insurance rates for human drivers will shoot through the roof once autonomous cars hit parity. Many people will simply be priced out

NASA’s budget is controlled by congress, which is akin to NASA being controlled by a rabid schizophrenic 3 year old. Projects are chosen, funded,or canceled based on political clout rather than scientific progress / need. By selecting commercial service providers NASA gets to make an end run around congressional…

Motorcyclists are only ever in the news for doing something bad or dying, no wonder so many people hate us. Seriously, if you go to most any random motorcycle post online that’s not in a motorcycle specific forum there’s usually one or more folks wishing the rider dies.

This severs the legs

Right? I would have expected a car to punch straight through the roof and land inside someone’s bathroom. Something like this:

The first impact probably punctured or severed the fuel tank / fuel lines. Since the car was still moving pretty quickly the fuel spray likely became an atomized mixture, combine with sparks from metal debris on the road surface and you get the fireball you see here.

The innov setup is all wired, everything starts up and records the moment you start the bike. I’ll probably still rid with the gopro for the same reason but at least with this setup I won’t have to worry about not capturing an event due to some random gopro-ism (or me forgetting to press record).

I use a gopro hero3 daily on the bike but can say it’s a bit of a pain even though almost nothing can touch it in terms of image quality. The stock battery has a laughably small charge for commuting and the looped recording mode eventually fills the card and stops recording which is the oppositie of what you would…

Officer: Show me where the wasp stung you.

So how does that explain the first words out of his mouth being “I don’t care” ?
