I hate that we normalize deaths by vehicle like this.

If a person dies and it is found to be completely your fault, you should go to prison, or at least have a criminal record.

These aren't "accidents".

They are actual things that have happened due to factors including in this case “undue care and attention”.

Alberni Valley News · Judge issues $1,500 fine in Qualicum Beach crash that killed Alberni womanPar Neil Corbett

🚙 Was driving the other day and someone came through the curve with high speed cluelessly cutting through in my lane.

🙄 I'm safe (I drive very defensively because kid and all) but it got me thinking if the person was driving stupidly, recklessly, carelessly or plain dangerously.

💡 Then it dawned on me. The perfect way to say how stupid, careless and all that...

🥁 they were: VIBE DRIVING

It's weird what grabs the attention and what doesn't.

I was looking up some UK #statistics and it looks like the most dangerous thing our sons do is drive a car.

Over 78% of all car fatalities are male and that's even higher in the younger groups.

Strangely, that's not why men's insurance is higher. That's mostly because men are more likely to make a claim.

Apparently women cause more accidents per capita in the #USA, which is a very odd geographical difference if you ask me.

These are the kinds of discrepancies that make me suspicious of #social #research

Someone must be getting this wrong, surely. #american #women can't be worse #drivers than their #British counterparts, can they?

10 Classic California Road Trips to Drive in Your Lifetime via Afar [Shared]

California is, hands down, one of the best places in the world for a road trip. It’s the third largest state in the USA, and its 164,000 square miles are packed with varied terrain highlighted by some 66 scenic byways. Along the 865 miles of coast, road-trippers will meander by remote beaches and sheer cliff vistas as well as lively urban beach communities, such as Santa Monica and Venice in Los Angeles or laid-back La Jolla in San Diego. Inland, rocky desert landscapes give way to rolling farmlands, and two-lane highways carve through quiet groves of towering sequoias before climbing into the high, rugged peaks of the 352 mountain ranges.

Not sure if turning the #A14 into the #M14 would be a miracle cure (a Northern bypass for #Ipswich does make more sense, but won't happen overnight) - either would only provide fairly short term gains, they would soon fill up with traffic!

A wider problem is bad #driving during the time pressures of the rush hour - more businesses should adopt flexible working to alleviate this (the lorry drivers are already working 24/7)

One of our sons is a truck driver. He gets a bit racist when he's behind the wheel of his 60-tonne behemoth, specifically toward drivers from the Indian subcontinent. Not all, and only when they display a remarkable lack of driving skill. To be fair, he's just as reactive to bad drivers when they're caucasian, too.

He also like doof-doof and a laugh, so I made this for him. It's not really doof-doof, but it's a good little toe-tapper.
