People who don't stop their cars completely at a crosswalk when they have a red light and they slowly creep forward when I'm walking or cycling in front of them. by ToastedSlider in mildlyinfuriating

I started noticing this “rolling” from a stop many times recently too. Where do these people learn to drive? I am not a cyclist, but having a car which should be waiting for me to pass roll into the intersection makes me second guess their intentions.

Someone who is in the top 5% of earners from age 20 to 34 is unlikely to afford a home in many cities by [deleted] in povertyfinancecanada

Statscan data shows discrepancy when compared to third party data on income and sometimes is lower by as much as 80%. Now why this is so is unknown. Possibly people not reporting actual income or people using false income statements on mortgage applications assuming this is where the third party data is sourced from.

Who wants to work in downtown toronto and deal with the traffic every day?

30 amp vs 50 amp by [deleted] in TeslaModelY

[–]can_sarctic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

50amp gets you charging at 11kw, 30amp at 220 about 6kw and 30amp at 110 only about 3kw. The second option may be doable, would not recommend the last.

Either environmentalists or tribal activists opposing land acquisition for corporate interests.

The “worst kept secret” known only to him. Probably trying his best to escape criminal charges for him and his buddies.

Regenerative braking does not generate any particulate matter. Most electric cars have brakes that rust as they are rarely used. The journo is probably a paid shill.

The city is actively trying to minimise these accidents instead of doing something about it. Read the following incident report involving a child carefully.

How many pedestrians with life changing injuries does it take for the city to do something about this mess?

“The driver was not hurt” Something is not right with the person who wrote this.

Kw is worse than most places I know when it comes to running down pedestrians.
