It's the "people in the west do bad things too" argument in a different format.

That's a bit like saying, my car already has a dent so I don't bother driving carefully anymore. And in Germany's case, I now drive with my eyes closed
EDIT: (and Trump has basically banned driving )

And yes, for NewtBoy that is all a false equivalency. The two issues have absolutely nothing to do with each other, and not even remotely relevant to immigration. (But maybe they could be made relevant, and like you've suggested we'll not only send back the pedo priests back to the Vatican we'll take in a progressive Muslim immigrant, it's win win!).

I stand by my overly pedantic comment and note I made it after upvoting.

I looked on YouTube, and most of the comments seem to be between people like me and people calling them ghey faggits. At least people who claim if a large group start saying something incorrectly, that means it's now correct.

It's not like saying axe instead of ask, where it's a pronunciation variance, but means the same.

It's like the statements:

1)In my accident the other guy was charged with driving with undue care and attention.

2)In my accident the other guy was charged with driving without due care and attention.

The first is what a lot of people say, but it still isn't correct because it means the exact opposite of the second, correct statement. Driving with undue care means you are giving the driving care and attention to which it is not due. You are being "too careful". Why would you be charged with being too careful?

Oh, I agree that what the woman on the bicycle did was profoundly stupid and she should have waited for the signal or at least recognized the dangerous situation she was in re: oncoming traffic. She put everyone else in a dangerous and easily avoidable situation. At the same time though, were I driving the oncoming car, I would be slowing down and covering my brakes at the crosswalks, anticipating that a pedestrian might dash out from between the cars (happens a lot, though they usually stop short right after freaking me the hell out). In many places, hitting a pedestrian on a crosswalk is your fault regardless of the signals.

I'll certainly also grant you that a collision in the situation was probably unavoidable given how fast bike lady was going, but I also can't approve of the oncoming driver. Of course, speed is hard to gauge in the video, but they seemed to be just driving along at a constant high-ish speed assuming having the right of way means you don't have to watch out for idiots doing foolish thing.

Also, I see it as a reasonable (though stretched in this instance) rule of thumb that in a dense urban environment, if you have to swerve to avoid a pedestrian rather than just braking, you weren't driving carefully enough.

Some people can't accept any criticism at all of any in their group without instantly jumping to hyperbole and claiming criticism equates to absolute blanket hatred. I find that terribly sad and over reactionary. '100% With us or against us' is a terrible way to live life.

It's proper to teach your child to be careful driving around school busses, and any other moving vehicle. They all get in crashes all the time, so drive carefully, also busses are full of children that don't look before running across streets, so be extra careful....and don't drive around them! (It's a crime)

But I understand, some people are team players, and refuse to acknowledge any foible of their 'team'. To me, that denies them the opportunity to ever improve. C'est la vie.

This is exactly why you actually probably drive better on MJ than on alcohol.

Alcohol: "I am fucking awesome at this driving shit!"
MJ: "Oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck drive careful drive careful."

Well a good physics model has always been one of the most important aspects of the Crysis (and even FarCry) series of games. I think this is a good thing. I'm sure they'll beef up a few cars so they don't get ruined right off the bat or make sure that your control over the vehicle is such that you can make sure you won't turn it into swiss cheese in the immediate future, say 10-20 minutes if you're driving careful.

The thing to remember is that this essentially lets them develop "new" technology to use by the player "in house" using in-game mechanics and that indeed IS something we've never seen and seems quite promising and interesting to me.

The cop is probably more or less okay. He'll be sore with some soft tissue damage. He'll probably need to see a chiropractor, and he might have an injury to his knees.That's assuming he had an airbag in the car--I think I heard the pop as it deployed. It'll be very painful, but probably not anything you can't recover from.

I'm more worried about the driver of the van. Vehicles these days do really well with front-end collisions, with various safety features in the car design, including impact cages and airbags that pop at greater or less speed based on the speed of the collision. Side-impact collisions are a lot more dangerous. Even if there are airbags, the geometry of the car just won't stand up as well. People hit like that tend to be a lot more likely to sustain serious injury. Probably the biggest risk, assuming the driver was wearing their seat belt, would be the driver's head striking the door window. She would have at least a concussion, possibly serious injuries to her left leg, and soft tissue damage up and down the right side of her body.

I'm a customer service associate for a major insurance company. My job is basically to take new claims from people who have been in accidents. The good news is that since I've started the job, I've learned just how safe our cars are these days. It's relatively rare even with highway accidents that people are seriously injured as long as we're talking about something like straight on damage or a collision at an angle. (A head-on collision is obviously going to be a lot more dangerous. Fortunately, the van did come in at an angle, so the cop car didn't take nearly as much force as it could have.)

Side-impact collisions are what send people to the hospital these days. Drive careful, folks!

you are now entering the uncanny valley please drive carefully
