It was unlikely that there was going to be an 'accidental' reason why that car ended up where it did...

Re: In todays news...
Teslas get really high crash ratings, deliberate or not.
I initially thought "blimey!" - still do in fact - but if you actually do the maths, a 300ft drop would "only" get you up to a speed of ~100mph assuming you had a clear unbroken fall, which it doesn't look like this car had.
Would I drive off a 300ft cliff? No It does make you think a bit about driving at 100mph though!

The assumption is it was deliberate.

Re: In todays news...
The manufacturers and distributors are too stupid to get the drugs to the shops who want them.
But somehow that's the Govt's fault

They can and they do. I can't tell you very much because it is covered by very strict legal and confidential rules but someone very close to me has spent the last 5 years catching these people and getting them locked up.

It took all the worlds superpowers and trillions of dollars to find Bin Laden and most of the time he lived in a cave.
No wonder Batman did so well.
And evidently plod can't find burglars, muggers, drug dealers, etc on the streets even though there are millions of the buggers out there.
With the crime levels in the UK I'm surprised if the law can find their own arses with both hands.

Re: In todays news...
Probably takes a perve to catch a perve. And all the perves you know about have been locked up, or have no desire to get implicated in something they haven't already been done for.

McCarthy just lost the 14th vote... Now they can't agree on adjourning until Monday or having the 15th vote tonight. It's now gone 11pm in DC...

Re: In todays news...
I read that one of the key concessions that the ultra-swivel-eyed-loons extracted from the not-quite-so-ultra-sels is the removal of metal detectors at the entrance to the House so they can get in carrying their beloved guns.
Hands up all those that think that's going to end well next time they think a vote has been 'stolen'.
Doubt is not a pleasant condition.
But certainty is an absurd one.

That’s a nice thought, but there’s a saying on the farm: “They never come back.”

Is it so you can defend yourself when Trump/FBI organises a snap riot?

I assume it's so that they can take a few guns in each day and build an armoury ready for when the 'Proud' Boys need to come and defend democracy.DefTrap wrote: ↑Sat Jan 07, 2023 9:38 amIs there a reason you need to be armed for a bit of debating?Count Steer wrote: ↑Sat Jan 07, 2023 8:47 am
