The Science Behind Traffic Jams

Mar 5th 2011 5:54PM (Autoblog)
Two of the solutions are invalid and stupid. The saddest thing is in many places this idiocy has long since been implimented.

1)Merging lights, In the bay area merging lights are DIRECTLY responsible for almost all highway congestion. You can time it to the very minute they turn on and off. The reason is blindingly simple; it causes consistent line of people merging in at 20mph due to being made to come to a complete halt where they should speed up, this dominoes into patches of traffic every time.

2)Bus lanes, good idea however it doesn't work in a world of stupid shortsighted limpwristed government. All it ever does in essence is cut down the lanes because of course the cities never have the gall to shave off some more room for the actual buslane, like most carpool it's just stealing another vital lane of regular traffic.

Chinese women buying disproportionate percentage of exotic cars?

Jan 23rd 2011 8:17PM (Autoblog)
I've done allot of studying of modern china and hate to burst the gender equality bubble; but 95% of those women buying these cars are the wives of these millionaires. Chinese women are considered the biggest gold diggers in the world, and are one of the biggest causes of the bubble there as no urban white-collar male could dream of marrying one without a couple flats to his name. The self reliant female millionaire are if anything rarer there than here, and far more pragmatic about their transportation.

Only the most demented closetcase otaku-weaboo would like the disgusting music that ruined this video. After muting it though was fun looking at the cars.

@hondoford

What is wrong with you? Your entire argument went out the window after the second taser shot. There are plenty of qualified candidates all over the country, cops like you are just fearful of your circle of crooked cronies getting smaller.

Hyundai really didn't half bake their hybrid unlike all the other me too manufacturers who shat out hybrids en mass after the Prius. Will be fun to see what people do with the volt.

Video: AB reader erects unique billboard outside of Detroit, needs help adopting baby

Dec 30th 2010 6:58PM (Autoblog)
Allot of my friends growing up were adopted, they were and mostly are extremely ungrateful towards their adoptive parents. They worshiped the biological parent who ditched them, until they meet and then things go real south for blood is thicker than water.

Its sad but my few adopted associates really gave me a sour taste for the whole thing. Open adoption doesn't fix things either, then you are pretty much forcing the kid to be torn rather than have a good 10-15 years of thinking they know who their real parents are.

Report: Paris takes first step to ban SUVs

we should do the same, restrict all vehicles over 2.5 tons to those with contracting licensees or other businesses with a valid need. I'm sick of these stupid tools in my apartment complex without so much as a single scuff in their liner-less truck bed.
