  • Sounds reasonable to mix up dirt roads at a campsite. Idk why the other commenter had to be so uptight. I get the mixup in the lot if it’s all paved and smooth, especially if say you make a left into the lot and the rail has a pedestrian crossing first. Shouldn’t happen, but there’s significant overlap in appearance of the ground. The average driver is amazingly inept, inattentive, and remorseless.

    I’d be amused if your lot is the one I know of where the train pulls out of the station, makes a stop for the crosswalk, then proceeds to just one other station.

    But the part of rail that’s not paved between? That should always be identifiable as a train track. I can’t understand when people just send it down the tracks. And yet, it still happens. Even at the station mentioned above where they pulled onto the 100mph section. Unreal.






  • The ~2010 runaway Toyota hysteria was ultimately blamed on mechanical problems less than half the time. Floor mats jamming the pedal, drivers mixing up gas/brake pedals in panic, downright lying to evade a speeding ticket, etc were cause for many cases.

    Should a manufacturer be held accountable for legitimate flaws? Absolutely. Should drivers be absolved without the facts just because we don’t like a company? I don’t think so. But if Tesla has proof fsd was off, we’ll know in a minute when they invade the driver’s privacy and release driving events


  • If only there was a way to avoid the place where trains drive.

    I checked first. They didn’t make a turn into a crossing. It turned onto the tracks. Jalopnik says there’s no official statement that it was actually driving under FSD(elusion) but if it was strictly under human driving (or FSD turned itself off after driving off) I guarantee Tesla will invade privacy and slander the driver by next day for the sake of court of public opinion

    ITT: movie opinions based on movie advertisements for the circle jerk instead of seeking movie announcements or even, retroactively, awards/nominations. But I get it, you know what the next Superman is going to be so it’s easy to have an opinion on it without seeing it whereas the other half of the movies are original… but risky for your use of time.

    Cue complaints about rigged awards stealing from better movies without acknowledging it’s a showdown between multiple original movies.

    Cue complaints about popcorn pricing as if you’re forced to eat popcorn and eat popcorn for every home movie

    Cue complaints about gross movie theaters as if this is really about the originality of movies instead of a likely attention span issue
