    Francis Scott Key Bridge (Baltimore) hit by Cargo Ship and Collapsed

    Wow, side question. Did the insurance companies go after her personal finances or was her policy just maxed out? I read that there are military 4 sea lift ships or something stuck in the harbor.

    Francis Scott Key Bridge (Baltimore) hit by Cargo Ship and Collapsed

    Do you think it's possible that dropping the anchor caused the ship to steer towards the pier? Supposedly when power came back online for a moment before the collision that's when the anchor dropped. I'd assume there is a manual override for this but that might be require a lot of manpower and...

    Francis Scott Key Bridge (Baltimore) hit by Cargo Ship and Collapsed

    You have to look at who made the statement, it's the same guy who said he used to take the train over the same bridge... I can see a possibility of upfront pay-it-just-to-get-it-fixed-ASAP and then send the subrogation bill later. I presume there are multiple financial mechanisms and agencies...

    Two Thirds Of Cars Will Be Electric/Hybrids by 2032

    I understand some road taxes, but this opportunity will most likely be exploited to squeeze in additional charges. Maybe a weight based system? Should the Chevy Bolt pay as much as a Rivian? Who knows, but when it comes to excuses for taxes, EVs will be a prime target. Cost of progress I...

    By 2032 BEVs will most likely be more expensive to own than any other vehicle because: - New taxes (electric surcharges, road taxes, newly made up random taxes state will make up). - Increased insurance rates due to increased total losses as a result of: -- Unrepairable batteries that...

    Morals and working with the public

    Should have marked it up more, looks like he's doing the guy a favor, maybe a loyal customer. Some savings accounts have a .01% APY and then the bank loans out your money for 7%+ Now there's a markup!

    Two Thirds Of Cars Will Be Electric/Hybrids by 2032

    At the body shop I worked at, a lot of the techs had hybrid badging on their daily beater ICE vehicles, donated courtesy of multiple Priuses they worked on. One guy had multiple lol.

    Vehicles spying on you.

    I bet that other manufacturers predicted this would happen and didn’t go ahead with the extra revenue for data mining. A really rotten low hanging fruit. It was only a matter of time they would be exposed and I bet multiple execs at GM knew it, but were overruled. There were probably a few...

    Coyote Encounter

    Maybe it would be a good idea to alert wild life control or park rangers or who ever might be able to take care of this. You saved those kids lives, let the authorities know so they can do something.

    Vehicle recommendation for the war zone use

    The "control panel" looks like a 5th graders science project. Stripped sheetrock screws, janky labeling, terrible upholstery. Makes me wonder what the "armor" is made of.
