  • operating a vehicle runs on the assumption that the cars around you are operated in the realm of sanity. with acceptable human reaction the trained standard is a car distance of 3 seconds back. but that assumption is unblinking focus, which is not true in many cases. if you are preparing for a lane shift your attention is demanded by law elsewhere. break checking, or slamming unnecessarily on the break, does not defer guilt to the victim. the problem is that it’s hard to prove, unless you have a front facing camera which is a defensive measure. there is no defensive measure for an inward facing camera

    except this sort of thing is already in use in amazon trucks to judge a driver at all times by an outside entity judgements made without context. why would you own something that can only make your case harder? you can’t not give it over as evidence if you have it. so it’s best not to have it.

    there is an accident because the car ahead of you slammed their breaks on the open freeway, causing a crash, in court they point that you were at the moment before the crash were checking your rear view mirror and not the road based on the eye tracking, and argue if you were looking forward you would have avoided the accident.

    or you could tape up the camera











  • same thing was said by racists about a black president. turns out if you field a not shit candidate it doesn’t matter. Harris polled to win against trump, so she has the numbers to possibly win by all counts. too bad she snatched failure from the jaws of victory.

    i am so sick of people pretending that the loss was because of the candidates gender when they ran a terrible candidate after dragging their feet on joe biden after knowing he was incompetent, at the fourth quarter, skipping a primary, backing both an unpopular genocide, and pushing connections with the establishment. i don’t think there was much she could have done worse. and yet she almost won.
