Hitting that barrier ramp was probably enough to wake him. That’s just about enough time to start panicking before hitting the arch (note that the car’s brake lamps don’t come on until the car is already in mid-air). Read more

It ended up in a guy’s front yard at the end of the street. The bus was fine, and i don’t think there was any damage to the trailer. Read more

Well, you know what they say: can’t spell Fit without F it.  Read more

Don’t worry, I bet VW’s apology will include a free oil change.

Phosphorescent paint? That’d be neat. Long-lasting glow too, if you have camera flashes going off all the time. Read more

Uber is one of the last companies in the world that I’m inclined to feel forgiving towards. But I do believe that people should be given a second chance, to demonstrate that they have actually learned from their mistakes. Too bad Herzberg won’t be getting a second chance... Read more

The industry needed a wake-up call, and Uber especially needed a slap in the face, but it’s still infuriating that the Tempe incident was allowed to happen by all parties involved. Read more

4) Lying. Car “books” for $4800. Yes it does. At a dealer. With all options. With lower miles than this car. In pristine condition. I can check this on kbb in minutes. People that do this are habitual liars. Read more

No auto climate control here. I leave the fan on its lowest setting until the engine warms up, then crank it up to full blast until comfortable. Then I turn the fan back down to its lowest (quietest) setting, and only if it feels too hot after that do I turn the temp knob down from full. Read more

Pulling over was always an option. Read more

Not sure how differently the drift car would perform in NASCAR, but I’m sure the nascar would be a lot of fun drifting. It just wouldn’t have as much steering angle as a real drift car. Read more

I almost thought it said “thoroughbred” at first, and was about to write something very angry about it. Read more
