The first time it was mentioned it was hyperlinked to an article that would explain, but I’ll fill you in.
It’s a joking reference to the asinine conservative conspiracy theory that this accident happened because of DEI hiring practices or because of the new “woke” Infrastructure Act. That’s obviously ridiculous either

Both can be true, and in this situation that is exactly the case.

It’s all slightly more complicated than that... This is from another comment on a Gizmodo article.. 

No kidding. There were so many caveats in that PSA, which implies the lack of even one of them renders the whole policy non-enforceable. How about just a “carry a loaded gun, be expected to be arrested” announcement even the simps can understand?

Ammosexuals typically aren’t the most intelligent people.

If you bring a firearm to the checkpoint with a round in the chamber and the firearm is unholstered, you will be arrested,” Maj. Kelley Collier said in a statement.

I agree, many in the comments here blame the driver and passenger and no one is really asking why do we have these checkpoints in the first place? Are these checkpoints proven to work? Are our tax dollars and resources getting a reasonable return on investment to stop every day citizens miles from the border to ask

Has the internet made everyone profoundly stupid or has mankind always been this way?”

Now playing

Here’s video of the approach with a few other speed limit signs and exit only signs (38 seconds).

If that many people are slamming into that wall, it’s a sign that something’s wrong with the road design. You need some flashing lights in that tunnel, some actual speed limit signs, something more than what they have now. Drivers aren’t going to always be paying 100% attention, and highway designers need to keep that

I had to try to find this!! This looks like it... Amazing...

But the GX isn’t $10,000 more…

IMO it does not make sense to buy an EV if you are planning to rely on a charging network for anything outside of the occasional longer trip. If it is your commuter car, you’d better have a 40Amp+ charger in your garage or dedicated parking space. Anything else and you’re better off with a PHEV, HEV, or just regular

“I want something interesting and unique that not every idiot owns. Exclusivity.

Ever since a black man was elected President...

Even if they didn’t try to slip some kind of payment into the bill, I’m sure he would happily accept the honor and file a lawsuit within the hour. 

That’s my perception as well. Back when the Model S was the hot new thing at the luxury price point, it probably attracted a lot of reckless drivers with money who previously would have purchased Audi and BMW sedans. Or the X6.

Agreed. BMW and RAV4 drivers around me are still the very worst. Teslas are maybe 5th worst? 

Musk is such a vile POS, I could never buy one of his MAGA mobiles. Mind you, douchebag Telsa driver isn’t helping at all. They’ve quickly taken the crown from BMW guy as the most reckless driver. 

Incidentally, the U.S. also has a declining birth rate.
