Love the damage assessment:

" The other car was "fuckin' totaled," according to driver Dylan Case, 22, who was injured in the crash."


hhhh... I thought all of the google mapping cars were autonomous. Seems only a few states allow it:

QuoteGoogle self-driving car pulled over for 'driving too slowly' in Mountain View

"Driving too slowly?" the post asked. "Bet humans don't get pulled over for that too often."

They must have had the blowup African American driver option.

Just yesterday I was listening to a radio show where a black guy said he was pulled over for "driving too close to the speed limit." The general flow of traffic was 70 in a 55 zone, so he was driving 55 to avoid a ticket. Got pulled over. I'm sure that happens to white people all the time.

After the crash, Case sought treatment at a hospital emergency room, where he received a cat scan and X-rays. Case said that he suffered bruised ribs and whiplash in the crash and was outfitted with a neck brace at the hospital.

Case said that he expects to miss upwards of three weeks of work and is planning legal action over the accident.

Sounds like he's hoping to cash in on this.

Quote"driving too close to the speed limit."

If that is true, the sad bit is the cop seemed to think he could get away with it. apparently so unaware that it is wrong headed.

Not quite as psychotic as a person who thinks its a good idea to bring about the end of the world, so that Jesus can come and save him from the infidel. (Or something like that).

It seems a day does not go by that I think the Robots taking over will have some benefits.
