What's insane is that there's no consequences for all the reckless driving. I saw a state trooper ignore a DRAG RACE IN THE RAIN on 93 last weekend. If there was a single thing I wish cops would do it would be get these lunatics off the street

The article you just provided shows a regulatory board finding issues with vehicle code nearly 20 years ago, with again no proof of ECU related SUAs other than "maybe it could happen". Not an overly compelling proof point

Vehicle programming standards are extremely strict (with the exception of autonomous driving which regulators have yet to catch up with). The sources used on that Wikipedia section cite a whopping single case of this happening outside a lab where they forced it

Was waiting at the light to turn onto Riverway the other day and EIGHT cars sped through the red light they had, almost had to wait another cycle. The world is going bonkers

I've seen so many people starting to run reds and do three-points on busy roads since the start of the pandemic. If there was ONE thing I'd want more cops to do it would be getting these people tickets, points on their license, temporary suspensions, etc, until the behavior became socially unacceptable again. It's starting to feel legitimately unsafe to exist as a pedestrian.

Good portions is all they have going for them, but I can get that for cheaper at fast food places. It's fine quality wise but it takes forever for a drive-thru and is expensive af. It's not fast, not cheap, and only okay quality. Extremely overrated

Car crashed into Atwood's on Cambridge St, thankfully no real damage. The driver decided to do a 3-point turn in the middle of a busy road then panicked when everyone got annoyed
