True, but if they are NOT pointing towards the road you sure as hell aren't paying attention.

I thought you would go back to 1955.

It looks like a confluence of many factors leading to the accident. 1. Road line markers worn 2. Different types of pavement (asphalt vs concrete) and the pavement gaps diverging differently from road line markers 3. No chevron markers in the gore lane to tell drivers they are not supposed to...

Here is a satellite image from 2009 showing a car in the death zone. I wonder how often does that happen at this location.

Go ahead, computer, take a best guess, especially when you use the cars in the next lane for guidance. I think it's possible that the shadow from the sign confused the computer to not seeing the white lane diverging to the left, and instead it locked on the right white lane and to the cars. The...

Ah, light and shadow it is (not a cutout for steering wheel). I really thought we had something there. Mildly disappointing. Lol.

I haven't seen anyone commenting on this yet. What is that? Some sort of option for an instrument cluster? Pop-up for HUD? (ducking) I don't think I've seen this in any RC or alpha cars.

The wheels are clearly different sizes on these cars, but I don't think the wheelbase has changed between the alpha and RC. So, if you line up the wheelbase, the cars are almost identical - the back bumper, the doors, joints, everything with the exception of the front bumper, which has a...

Maybe D is for Diesel? :D

I agree
