They want the taxpayer to foot the bill.

Agreed.

I used to do work like this. we had a guy at the docks that would call when a container ship full of TV/VCR combos would come in, he would tell me what truck and what highway it was on

The General’s management must be hugely out of touch with what people want. It took them ages to go mid-engine with the ‘vette but when the C8 came out, they sold like hot cakes. The Blazer could have been a money-printing Jeep rival like the Bronco but GM played it safe with a C1XX based CUV.

This pretty much says it all. Remember, this is a town with fewer than 1,500 residents.

When the survival of a municipality depends on pilfering its own citizens through traffic stops, code violations and the like, it is a sign that it is time to fold operations become unincorporated. I’d be willing to bet the majority of the budget goes to paying salaries and there are crumbs left for anything else.

Option A: vote him out

The forfeitures numbers are terrifying. Imagine you are on a family vacation and some small town cop decides your car and all your stuff is now their property and you have to sue to get it back. 

Yeah, kind of annoys me too. Couldn’t they have used a different name?

Sure, as soon as Ford renames it to the Probe.

It’s bruh-stock investors worried about the money they have in Te$la stock rather than their mortgage.

The levels of delusion and willful ignorance that you have to achieve in order to sincerely type out this question and post it publicly are truly awe-inspiring. 

Send out checks to everyone—more money supply—so there’s less value. And we get inflation—only an idiot couldn’t see that effect coming.

I remember, in the before times, you could get a clean title Spark with under 70k at the dealer auctions for $2k-3k. They were practically giving them away. Nobody wanted them.

agreed! they should rename it to something that actually explains where it’s at in development like “AI Learner’s Permit” or something similar that explains “Yes it can drive but you need to be ready to take over just like a 15 year old driver!”

I think I’ve figured it out...the Telsa FSD Beta is based on the average driving skills of an American! It all makes sense now! The crashing, the ignoring traffic signals, the ignoring being pulled over by a cop. This program is working just fine if you ask me.

Obligatory

I think we should strongly consider “would immediately end a driving test” as a valid criteria to stop a public beta of any self-driving system. Until it can complete (and pass) a basic driving test, we should probably limit test vehicles to people hired and trained to properly monitor and control the vehicle.

Surely Tesla’s legal jargon that’s required to use AP saves them from things like this no? If not, I feel like they already would have been sued into oblivion.

Stealing is not a good thing to do, we all know that. Thieves are out to make a quick buck at the expense of someone else. But this strikes me more as desperate, wholesale looting than property crime.
