  1. Sounds complicated.

    "Alphabet-owned Waymo introduced its transit rewards program Tuesday. It will start in Northern California and expand to other cities. Waymo employees will be the first to access the program.

    "To earn ride credit, or Waymo Cash, customers will have to link their Visa card to the Waymo app and use it to take an autonomous trip and public transit within two hours of each other. For each connected trip on public transit, riders will earn $2.85 in Waymo Cash, which is the cost of transit fare in San Francisco."

  6. If this guy had survived, he would have very likely been nicked from his hospital bed (even Addenbrookes if he ended up there), serving a few years in HMP (possibly as a disabled prisoner) and living with a lifetime of debt (insurers may still choose to go after him to recover their substantial costs)

    Another lad in the car *did* try and get him to slow down, but he simply refused to do so.

    Sooner or later incidents like this are likely to get graduated driving licences introduced here (although that means more surveillance to enforce them, and if the worse aspects of #CarCulture are not addressed might only push the bad behaviour slightly along the age group into drivers 20s/30s)

  12. This is so horrible. I’ve spent a lot of time in this area, mostly mountain biking over at El Corte de Madera Creek Preserve and at a music camp at a YMCA up the road from La Honda. It’s such a beautiful treasure in the Bay Area and having it terrorized and ruined by macho car culture is beyond words to me. Another clear cut example of how we don’t hold people accountable because of cars.

  25. Not many people come out smelling of roses here - not #Police who didn't check the identities of casualties correctly, nor the lass who was #driving way too fast for the conditions without even a full #licence, or two lads who were following behind the vehicle which crashed and narrowly escaped being charged for encouraging street #racing

    Folk in #Yorkshire really need to sort out what is going on with #CarCulture or else they are going keep losing young people this way (ironically its very likely the misidentification happened because the youths in the car were middle class and not previously known to Police!)

    Also a warning on how easy it was for Police to get #surveillance info from some #Life360 app on one persons mobile.

    She'll lay belief on you
    Skin sweet with musky oil
    The lady from another grinning soul
    Cologne she'll wear

    She'll drive a beetle car
    And beat you down at cool Canasta

  35. I live on a street that does not have sidewalks (le sad) and on a curve where people speed a lot. In the last two days, I talked to one dog walker and one runner about walking/runner against traffic so they can see what's coming at them. This genuinely didn't seem like something that had occurred to them.

    I'm glad I said something, hopefully it came across as a helpful friendly neighbor and not a mansplainer. I thought this was well known approach for walking on the street, but just in case it's not, this is a PSA. It is infuriating that this burden falls on the pedestrian, I wish I lived off of an urban trail with convenient public transit.

  40. Wow - apparently *none* of the #Gardaí are #pursuit trained to same standards as officers in GB / NI (or other European countries).

    How even can a country operate like that?

    Folk will be constantly at the mercy of reckless drivers or outright criminals / sociopaths. I have also seen quite a few Irish tooters over the years pointing this out

    Sorting this out won't be an easy task - #roads in GB were quite lawless until things got cleaned up starting around late 1990s,. #CarCulture is strong, stubborn and resilient, and older #motorists still resent limitations of their "freedom" and many vote for parties such as Reform / Restore out of spite..
