Re: Drivers, 'Share the Road' with Motorcyclists

Always one of my biggest pet peeves. Sometimes I feel like putting spikes on the knuckles of my gloves so I can just drag them down the side of the next car that tries to pass me in my own lane. ...

Re: US Citizens Rights

What? Is there something wrong with public schools teaching firearm safety? I'm pretty sure its probably not done anymore, but should be.

Re: EU: 2013 Lexus IS 300h – Out with the Turbo Diesel, In With the Hybrid

I think what made me think outside the vehicle was the term "loudspeaker" instead of just "speaker". I don't think I'm alone in this.

If you do an image search of the term "loudspeaker" you get a...

I think even if backup cameras are mandatory, reduction of incidents would be within the margin of error. Even if the car has a camera, the driver has to still LOOK at the display. When the driver...

I don't know about any of the other manufacturers, but GM has had cylinder deactivation on the standard engine in their 1/2 ton trucks for about 10 years now. GM has also had auto stop available (on...

The LED headlight on my motorcycle lights the road extremely well, and I've taken to just leaving the high beam on all the time, and nobody ever flashes their lights at me.

There's a reason cops and cab drivers love them. If you have to sit in that driver's seat 12 hours/day, you want to be comfortable.
