Damage on front of Toyota before video started, number plate hanging off.

One comment said she was an unaccompanied learner driver.

Look, someone filled up with kangaroo fuel!

'Kangaroo juice' is a common saying here too when someone does this. My grandad wasn't a natural driver and would sometimes set the car off kangarooing down the road.

Car on the tracks, no driver, no passengers

Ardèche . Après un accident, il abandonne son véhicule sur les rails du chemin de fer

Dimanche 29 janvier, peu avant 7 heures du matin, un automobiliste qui circulait, vraisemblablement, en direction du nord sur la RD 86 a perdu le contrôle de son véhicule à hauteur de la commune de Vion.

I remember sitting in a tractor as a kid and wondering about a button with a rabbit on it on the dashboard...

Was there another with a turtle?

Always asking my dad, "Are you in rabbit or turtle?"

The gaffe wasn’t bad for everyone. Porsche said it had been in touch with the first person who made an online reservation and negotiated an agreeable outcome regarding the one vehicle the dealership had in stock. It didn’t elaborate.

Ooh that's right, it was a rabbit-turtle thing! Strictly speaking, I still don't know what it's for...

High and low range. At least on our older Kubota it makes for 6 ranges. High, medium and low, each of those have a high and low.

On old lawn mowers it was an indication of engine speed.

I switched to a battery mower and it's so much nicer than gas powered. It's essentially maintenance-free, I don't have to winterize it, it's lighter weigh, and quiet. I don't need ear protection and it's about as loud as a big fan. I also have a 56v model, so it cut about the same as my Honda gas mower.

My dad bought an electric lawn tractor in the 70s. I missed it when it died.

Based on not much I always associate it with this.

A 70s electric tractor, that must've weight several tons and had a run time of about 30 minutes?

If I won millions I'd definitely buy one and an electric milk float from the 60s/70s, just because.

It was a tiny Wheel Horse yard tractor with a 36 volt battery, like a golf cart.

This just popped up fairly local. Have a text into the guy to discuss but no call back yet. Think it would make a nice little show cruiser for the Missus which is what he used it for. Still has the deck as well. Asking 500 for it which I think might be fair what with 3 new batteries?? Said to be ...

They apparently made several variations using the same system over the years. That one is even smaller than the one we had. There is also a larger one that looks like a traditional yard tractor.

I mowed a few yards with it, the largest being a touch under an 3/4 of an acre and it was fine as long as I remembered to charge it up.

That's so cute, the Coca Cola crate on the back really makes it. Better than having to wear ear defenders I suppose.

Some idiot in France up cycled a fridge in to a fake speed radar to scare people into slowing down:

Les voitures sont de plus en plus lourdes : pourquoi est-ce un problème ?

Électrification, systèmes de sécurité omniprésents... Le poids de nos voitures est de plus en plus élevé, et cela commence à causer des problèmes.
