Well the ones I installed were blow into the tube every time or your car don't start haha. They aren't easy either. You had to blow a certain way or it wouldn't take a reading and work.

It’s crazy that Uber and Lyft are a thing that exists, and we still have to create technology to not allow people to drink and drive. Thing is people will quickly find a way around it.

billsfan89 Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Very sad, at least he didn't unintentionally take anyone out with him. Don't drink and drive it is not a good idea. 45 minutes ago, Poleshifter said: It surprises me that people have such an issue with wearing seat belts. Maybe they never saw the momentum demonstration with the egg strapped down vs not strapped down. I can understand teenage boys not wanting to seem unmanly, but adults driving without seat belts makes no sense. I have an adult step daughter who doesn’t wear them, and doesn’t make her kids wear them. It’s just a foolish choice to make. I have no idea why anyone would ever not want to wear a seat belt. Your chances of surviving a crash dramatically go up by having one on and your chances of sever injury go down dramatically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had two accidents at 60+ involving trees, with a telephone pole included in one of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so much for the safety, but rather because I like the various smells. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But taxis still work. 1 hour ago, billsfan89 said: Very sad, at least he didn't unintentionally take anyone out with him. Don't drink and drive it is not a good idea.

Well one person told me a story in the 90's that not wearing a seatbelt could save your life. She knew someone where the top half of the car was sheared off somehow suddenly while the bottom remained intact. A seatbelt would have prevented you from ducking quickly to avoid the shear.

Wacka Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Someone did get killed on Southwestern after I think the Denver game. Tesla is recalling all models from the last few years to get rid of a bug in its semi-self driving program. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
