Reminds me of the safety flags we used to have to attach to our Big Wheels so that drivers could see us.
I drive a Gazelle.
2013 VW Golf 2.0 TDI. Although I’ve not driven it since February due to a complaint with the financial ombudsman service as it’s evident I have a blown head gasket which was causing me issues from buying it used.
Now have a 35 mile each way trip on the Metrolink and train to work. Luckily Incan WFH three days a week.
I drive a civic but ask the average American and you might hear something like this. https://youtu.be/MI7Tq6sRxE4
I drive a 20 ton vehicle with dual rear tires, it gets about 4 mpg. I don't own a car though.
(I drive a city bus)
Used kid?
Used for the photo. Also, he's not brand new. The new ones cry a lot.
This morning I was driving to work and I saw off in the distance something moving behind an F250 truck. As I got closer and got to see the back, I realized it was the owner of the truck offloading tools at the worksite. He was on the shorter side, true, but a fully grown man completely hidden by the box of the truck.
Subaru Outback. You should see the kids roll off that hood at 80mph.
The Impreza I drive is lower so the kids fly higher since I'm hitting them lower down.
