Well you seem concerned about implementing laws that might keep people from doing stupid things. You also seem very passionate about seeing people die because they did something stupid.  Which is a really shitty kind of person to be.

You have to remember these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new west. You know...

How is a law requiring helmet usage your problem? Why do you seem to care that it exists?

As my friend’s deeply southern mother would say... “Oh, bless your heart.”

I love how this reads like they’re talking about an invasive species.

I always assumed there was this sizing up going on between trucks. A complex amalgam of size, horsepower, lift, tow mirrors, price, sound, wheels (number, size and width), speed and “what they’re hauling”.

I bought a VB WRX last yeast - the model right below the GT - so with the stick shift. Looking at the TR, I’m kinda wondering if I should have waited - this sounds like a pretty cool car.

I thought it meant they served as an English archer in the battle of Agincourt, and exclusively use it when passing Citrons and Peugeots.

This sentence?

OK, but again - just because you don’t see the point in owning it, or see yourself getting any enjoyment out of it, doesn’t matter. Someone clearly does get enjoyment out of it. And they hurt absolutely no one in pursuing what makes them happy.

Came here to say this too:

The Corolla isn’t a boring car. Sure, the current generic version is pretty... whatever. But it’s got an incredible history, and there’s a hot rodded version available.

There’s nothing about a Cat 5 hurricane that can’t be stopped with an AR-15.

The department was looking for a stolen Jeep Grand Cherokee with two handguns inside the vehicle.

Would have loved a Prius when we were looking at buying a new car last year. But the wait lists were insane. Doubly so if you wanted the PHEV. Still - excellent car. If you can get one.

Just a reminder: You don’t have to completely flee the state to stay safe from the storm surge. Just a few feet above the expected surge areas will keep you alive, if not totally dry and out of the wind.

Where did it say he ‘falsified evidence’?

Fair.

Yes - exactly. I’m kinda surprised there’s any outrage over this. His own statements that he was swerving “while putting on a seatbelt”, combined with his high BAL and his failure of the field sobriety test is pretty damning.

Wait a minute - his BAL was 0.067. The limit is 0.08 (at least where I am). And you can easily be impaired under the ‘legal limit’, and still subject to prosecution. So no - at least here - 0.067 is absolutely not a guarantee that the dude was ‘sober enough to drive’.
