    Saw this last night. At least no one got hurt. :eek:

    Bay Area proposes per mile tax

    Don't the various turnpikes on the East Coast charge per mile and based on your vehicle? Not saying that I-5 should turn into a toll road or anything, but at least the turnpikes don't violate your privacy like this plan would (unless you have an EZpass, of course).

    1974 VW 360 Degree Camping Trailer!

    I'm not sure how I feel about the roof mount. I thought most roof racks only hold a couple hundred pounds at most?

    Drunk driver Horror Stories

    Man, what a dick. :( Karma will bite him eventually though. Speaking of horror stories, there was this one dude in SD who got arrested for DUI 3 times in about 3-4 days. Was in the paper and everything. I'm surprised they didn't revoke bail after the 2nd arrest. :thumbdown:

    The Official Bad Roads Thread - Post Pics To See Who Has the Worst Roads

    lol. Best I could do on short notice. You'll notice that the curved patch that they put in after they installed utilities or something is starting to crack. ;)

    The Official Bad Roads Thread - Post Pics To See Who Has the Worst Roads

    (Most) California freeways seem pretty decent since they use concrete instead of asphalt. But yeah, LA's roads are far worse than the rest of SoCal, by far. Probably because they were designed for x number of cars per day and now they have ten times that many (if not more!) :(

    Unusual ticket in my GTI

    I think it depends on the employer and how deep they want to go. The Feds would probably see it if you're getting a security clearance, for example.

    Unusual ticket in my GTI

    The good news is that it doesn't seem to get you on the sex offender registry according to http://www.meganslaw.ca.gov/registration/offenses.aspx?lang=ENGLISH. Depends on the state though.It would probably still be embarrassing to explain to future employers etc. when they run background checks...

    Unusual ticket in my GTI

    Doesn't lewd conduct get you on the sex offender registry? If so, you're fucked (heh heh) if you get found guilty. :(

    RHD vs. LHD

    RHD goes best if you drive on the left. LHD if you drive on the right. (BTW, the US Virgin Islands drive on the left and use LHD cars just like on the mainland. Yikes.)

    Women & Manual Transmissions

    I drove a stick for the first time ever recently, and I definitely get the allure. In the traffic around here though day to day? Not so much.

    Abandoned GTI in Dubai

    Prison time leaves a stain on your record that never goes away. And there aren't that many people who will hire ex-cons, even if they've reformed and left the criminal life. I'd rather save prison for the violent people, honestly, and find punishments for the others that'll send a message but...

    GTI to come with a reverse camera in 2014

    I've seen the OPS sensor retrofit kits on eBay before. I had a one day subscription to erwin.vw.com and ended up finding a little bit of information on at least the sensor mounting part of the install, so maybe this is something I can have a shop do some time in the future. The automatic...
