https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cmmgvnnjgq9o How is that an acceptable response? If it told you to drive over a cliff, would you? (I know that one's been done too :roll: ) Rather than "writing to Apple and Google to ask them to update the maps" why aren't there questions about why driv...

If it could be implemented in a satisfactory way then it could mean that traffic calming measures, such as humps, cushions, and raised tables could be removed. They are a bad solution to controlling speeding because they cannot usually be traversed at the posted limit without discomfort. Worse than...

... mandated speed limiter (at least in CA). https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a46554218/new-car-regulated-speed-limit-california-bill/ I guess it will be a variation on the European ISA rules (a misnomer if ever there was one) so most of the technology already exists, just the same problem of accur...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-oxfordshire-67885644 "The force has referred itself to the police watchdog as it had received a report about the fallen tree about 90 minutes before the crash." So why is there anything to refer? Isn't this simply a driving too fast to be able to stop ...

Many, maybe most, of the people I know socially, or as relatives, seem to have no interest whatsoever in whether they are “driving well”. Particularly among ne...

I wonder if that might be an upside of automatic lights, assuming that it never, ever turns on the fogs. Which in my estimation, is about the optimum frequency of use. I've often wondered why rear fogs aren't tied into the speedo. Either have a 40mph limiter when they're on (which would amuse me fo...

And digressing slightly, can anyone explain to me what a reeducation course is please? I've seen reference to this in the last couple of days for some DCA and similar incidents. Presumably similar to a speed awareness course but with different (exactly what?) emphasis? I guess I see speed awareness...

I know that even at the front DRLs are not same as headlights and hence do **not meet legal requirements in bad weather. But the reality is that’s what people will use and they’re a lot better than nothing, if only the other end lit up too. While better than nothing, I still don't understand why we...
