It's hard to interpret these sentiments in light of Tesla, an American automaker. I'm not advocating for Tesla, but, their EV influence is undeniable.

Bike for a while and drivers just do whatever they want, whenever they want. Everything is a parking spot, everywhere is a good u-turn, road markings are mere suggestions, no turn on red signs are optional, and red lights are just really long yellows.

Good on Ben Chambers to vote no. It's stunning how little is needed for some to justify $24M of state money to widen roads. Some vague "safety" notes about weaving and slowing down.

The dt mall will never recover, better invest in stonefield while you can and cancel your UVA graduation dinner reservation.
