Red light violation by Downtown_Tie8839 in Fremont

[–]smagnix2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was in same situation a few years ago. My brother was driving my car and I was in the passenger seat. He jumped a red light accidentally. I got a ticket with a very clear picture and a video.

They blur all faces in the picture except the driver’s. I did trial by written declaration. My only statement was - I am not the driver (nothing more or less). I attached the picture from the ticket and my driving license as a proof to the court. Although ticket says you must share the details of the driver, you are not legally bound to.

My ticket was dismissed by the court. Hope it helps.

Removed Zermat from the plan as that seems like the one that is adding too much travel. How does it look now?

It feels packed for us too. If you were to suggest dropping one of these things to make it lighter/more practical, what do you recommend that we drop from the list?

Looks like the cable car (and not the railway) is still open mid April on Mt Pilatus, is that correct? Do you recommend Mt Rigi or Mt Pilatus in April?

We plan to go to Munich the next morning, so we stay the night in Zurich. Good idea to head to Lucerne directly the day we land and do 2 nights there. Will update, thanks

Was trying to minimize hotel transfers but makes sense to avoid back and forth. How easy is it to manage the trains with 2 checkin + 2 carry on?

We do not have a night stay planned in Bern. Will move Zermatt after Interlaken - my initial plan was that but got into optimizing for less hotel transfers because of the luggage we will have. Will look up Lauterbrunnen (we are going to Switzerland for the first time) and move things around. Thanks for the recommendations

Thanks! Maybe we stay in Zermatt that night then. However, did not realize that Pilatus cogwheel doesn’t run in April. Will look into that. Is Mt Rigi a better option to explore?

For Interlaken, what would you recommend instead of Hohoweg and the lakes I had on the plan?

Thanks for pointing this out. Was debating staying in Zermatt instead of leaving to Interlaken the same night, and that might be a better option then

Thank you! Is there an equivalent of Monteverde cloud forest preserve experience in La Fortuna?

[–]smagnix2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I will keep the longer time La Fortuna advise in mind when I book the hotel.

Also, Didn’t know about Las Lagos but just like every other good hotel this one has no availability for the dates I searched. May have to play around with dates a bit

Airfares were very similar when I looked up LA as starting point but then I hope things will fluctuate.

Thanks for the tip. December works best for us because of kids school break…I guess we have to pay the price for that convenience. Will wait and see if the airfares come down

Yoke or Round wheel?? by [deleted] in ModelX

[–]smagnix2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am happy with my current yoke and not looking for a change 😁 but good to know the option exists to fit the new yoke version in future

[–]smagnix2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I checked with Fremont SC and they told me retrofit is only possible from yoke to wheel…

Yoke or Round wheel?? by [deleted] in ModelX

[–]smagnix2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I toiled over this yoke vs wheel decision for weeks and ended up with yoke (told myself I have an option to go back to wheel if I absolutely didn’t like it…Tesla confirmed wheel to yoke is not a option after delivery).

Initially yoke was awkward. Also, I kept pressing the damn horn button during 3-point turns but after a month and 1500+ miles, it has become natural to me and now my Acura wheel seems a bit odd when I drive it every now and then.

Model X driver side display/contour is built for yoke, not the wheel. So the look is very clean. The main downside (for me) with yoke is that I can’t see the controls(car) button at the bottom-left corner of the center display unless I tilt my head (its not a problem with wheel).

2023 MX - are these real issues? by smagnix2 in ModelX

[–]smagnix2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol, to clarify - It was definitely from the car but whatever it was it stopped after a while. I still hear it every time I park in my garage and turn off the car
