At least at one major auto maker, environmental and serious health concerns are outweighing its aesthetic appeal.

Are they going to stop making cars with huge front hoods which are hugely dangerous to pedestrians? Or stop marketing their cars as if they’re meant to be driven dangerously?

Are these people all paying the $50,000 fine for selling to early?

The whole premise was that they’re in danger and need to get to Canada to be safe (the bad guys don’t have passports I guess 🤷), but have to wait just before they cross the border for everyone to show up seemingly for no reason.

Who are you referencing in this comment? Because the people that come to mind for me are Faiza Shaheen, who was deselected for, from what I can tell, liking some tweets that were critical of Israel, and Luke Akehurst, who has been selected while actually being antisemetic (but pro Israel so it’s fine I guess)

Crank? Isn’t this pretty standard for the tories at this point? They’ve pedalled conspiracy theories before.

This exists, Amtrak even runs one called the Auto Train, but it’s a lot more efficient to just leave the cars behind and put the people straight on the train.

In the US, but worldwide car companies push consumers towards larger vehicles because they are more profitable.

👏 Good job. Can you tell me what else is in the picture?

👍 Well done. But we were talking about the cars in the picture.

People would find some way to complain no matter what cars were chosen for the comparison, but the fact is cars have been getting bigger on average.

Better road design and just having fewer cars would do a lot more than sensors.

As a brit I don’t see this being enforced in the UK. The gov would be too scared that trump or an ally would come to power and we can’t risk effecting the special welationship 👉👈

Car companies want you to buy these larger, more profitable cars. They advertise them much more heavily and push you away from anything smaller.

The video app, owned by a Chinese company, said it would let federal officials pick its U.S. operation’s board of directors, would give the government veto power over each new hire and would pay an American company that contracts with the Defense Department to monitor its source code, according to a copy of the company’s proposal. It even offered to give federal officials a kill switch that would shut the app down in the United States if they felt it remained a threat.

IMO if you’re riding a bike, even if it has pedal assist, you’re not lazy.

But even if that is the case, what’s wrong with that? Is it not better to have these “lazy” people on ebikes than in cars?

Again, you’re talking about something different. I’m talking about electric pedal assist bicycles (often called an ebike), not electric mopeds.

The term ebike generally refers to a bike with pedal assist, not an electric motorcycle. Pedal assist means you are still exercising and you can set the level of assist you want.

Yeah way before. I had a bit of a look through some announcements and couldn’t find it so I can’t say exactly when.

Momentum is the biggest factor in the severity of the crash, and an ebike is never going to have as much momentum as a car. Severe incidents can happen with bikes and they should be sensibly regulated, but it is far less common than crashes involving cars.
