Elon Musk needs his own thread because he's in every damn thing/positive Elon Musk

No matter - Elrond can look forward to huge defence deals

 

yeah people are idiots

 

Especially people who buy Cybertrucks.

 

it’s an old favourite topic of mine that the modern driver does not understand traction because since years now the car does traction control for you.

As knave points out, you need to think through the physics of it.

 

often the older front wheel drive shopping cart could escape these situations where the big wagon with split diff would grind away uselessly!

Also reminds me of the old life hack of a few people sitting on the bonnet of a car on the skifield access road to try to maintain some grip!

 

I think i mentioned i got addicted for a few days to Matts Off Road Vehicle Recovery channel - from Utah

The problem in these situations is under snow in those parking bays is usually ice, so if you cut through the top, you will get stuck - especially on a camber. This is why you should spot what you are going to drive on to - even if it seems like not much snow.

Seen here at 3.30. Even Matt's giant wrecker can slide right off or get stuck- a city idiot would no doubt just drive fast along this track which is likely how the Ram went off

 

LOL

Yeah I am not really sure I believe old boys explanation when you read the actual charges

In one instance AAA covered three claims, totaling $2,800, for a vehicle tow to Salt Lake City, but the individual who submitted the claims admitted to the Utah Insurance Fraud Division that his vehicles were not towed, according to charging documents. Wetzel agreed to deliver construction material to the individual and the unnamed individual submitted claims to AAA instead of paying Wetzel directly, the charges state.

The investigator said Wetzel took responsibility for the false claims in a phone call, and said that in this instance he had provided towing services to the individual at separate times and Wetzel asked him to file a claim with AAA later instead of asking for payment or billing the individual at the time of service, according to the charges.

Wetzel also allegedly told the investigator that there were other instances where he would provide services and not immediately bill the person, then later Wetzel would ask them to submit a claim.

"Wetzel maintained he never turned in a job that did not have a legitimate service tied to it," the investigator said.

In another instance, charging documents allege that Wetzel helped with a tow for an individual who did not have an AAA membership. The filing claims Wetzel told the individual to obtain a membership, wait a few days, and then file a claim. Investigators say the claim that was filed was for a tow from Las Vegas to Washington County, when the charges claim the tow was actually from Apple Valley.

It does seem like the people doing the insurance fraud here are actually the customers? Not sure why on earth he did this to be honest. Maybe it's something small time Indies have to do to get jobs?

 

Yeah defo - lots of times you can just push the shopping cart off
