New kind of auto insurance can be cheaper, but tracks your every move | Good Car Camera

“The Research Bureau believes the time has come to equip the entirety of Worcester’s fleet with GPS tracking capabilities,” the bureau wrote in its report “Tracking City Equipment: How Expanded GPS Monitoring Could Benefit Worcester,” which was released Wednesday. “The city is missing an opportunity to collect data that can offer now-hidden optimizations and cost savings that cannot be uncovered by human oversight alone.”

“We had some bad turnovers. I had a couple of those. They ramped up the pressure a little bit to start the second half and we just tried to get out of it by ourselves too much. We made mistakes and missed some shots, but the main thing was that we let them pressure us into doing things that we really don’t want to do.”

Just Used CarsFifty-some years later, it’s hard to picture our beloved and iconic muscle cars as just used (and maybe used-up) cars, especially if you didn’t live through the era. The final chart in Lamm’s story dispassionately illustrates that point by listing their depreciation values as per the folks at Kelley Blue Book. The numbers in boldface type are the cars’ values as used cars; the numbers below are their base prices when new. These are for two-door hardtop models with four-speed manual transmissions.

I will say, as a retired federal agent, you should trust govt agents as much or as little as you trust a priest, doctor, lawyer, banker, teacher, etc.

Having slept in the airport overnight with fresh flights to eventually take her to family in Galicia booked, she learned her 8.55pm flight would be delayed as she was third-in-line to check in.

In 2011, only one Tesla TSLA, +5.61%   had ever been stolen in the U.S. That was four years after Tesla produced its first model, the Tesla Roadster, and one year after the company went public. The number of these electric cars being stolen has steadily increased every year along with production: 6 in 2013, 15 in 2014, 9 in 2015, 28 in 2016, 57 in 2017 and 23 from January to May 2018. And yet almost every stolen Tesla over those years has been recovered — all except 3, including that sole Tesla stolen in 2011. (Tesla did not respond to request for comment.)

Uber suspended its self-driving vehicle testing in the Phoenix area, Pittsburgh, San Francisco and Toronto.

Uber, Google and Tesla have all exhibited elements of ‘recklessness’ in their development of autonomous vehicles, as shown by the slew of accidents that have recently occurred, according to Gizmodo. 

In 1989, Nissan brought back the Skyline GT-R, not seen in production since before the days of the 1973 Oil Crisis. And it gave the world the twin-turbo 300ZX, a Corvette that didn’t look like it was built in your uncle’s garage. Infiniti’s Q45 sedan was one of the most advanced vehicles in the world when it came out, and the Lexus LS had nearly unprecedented quality. In 1990, Honda (in America, Acura) took on Ferrari with the NSX. In 1991, Mazda won the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the first Japanese manufacturer to do so.

Even TV and movie villains are using them (who remembers Breaking Bad’s Mike Ehrmantraut stripping a car to pieces in search of one?)

Tesla declined to answer specific questions and instead pointed to a privacy policy buyers sign at the time of purchase, which stipulates that vehicle data can be shared "with other third parties when required by law," though there was no specific mention of the government monitoring centres in the Chinese version of the policy.

"White vans still trigger something in my head," she said. A white van was reportedly seen near Huisentruit’s apartment the morning she disappeared.
