If someone greased one of my loved ones with their car and got off with a slap on the wrist like that, I would never ever let them live it down, just make sure they are absolutely miserable. Tbh I'd probably get in some trouble myself for how I'd go about that.

Grassy Knowles posted:sounds like the fine is about $150 Thing is, if you ran them over because they ran over a loved one of yours they could probably make a case for intent and you'd get done for murder, it's only a tiny fine if you negligently kill somebody in a car. So ideally you need to pay somebody unknown to them to accidentally kill them.

It's amazing that driving a car is by far the most dangerous thing we regularly do, and the penalties for injuring or killing people with your car are so small because deep down the majority of people know they're not capable of doing it safely so they don't want to cop a severe punishment when the inevitable happens.

I'm surprised they let the engineers play with something that's just a neat little marketing exercise that's only appealing to nerds Where the gently caress is the electric Ruckus?

It could do my commute on a single charge, but I'm pretty sure my commute is exceptionally short compared to most folks. I'm also not seeing any space for luggage/groceries. It definitely needs a folding basket on those handlebars or something.

Suburbanites are now using the cop rhetoric "I feared for my life in my SUV". Another bad American apple, nothing you can do about this. At this point, there are dozens of orchards that are completely rotten. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2023/09/14/deer-street-shooting/ quote:A man who was trying to slow traffic in his neighborhood because deer were crossing the street was shot and killed by another man who was driving past, authorities in western Washington state said.
