Your ability to evaluate yourself often degrades with age. It is the state’s responsibility to independently verify that the drivers they license are capable of driving safely.
If prison is for rehabilitation and not punishment, are you suggesting we rehabilitate this woman for being elderly?
The NY Post is a rag.
The driver is in her eighties, in poor health, previously had a clean record, was not intoxicated or distracted, showed remorse for what happened, and did not contest the charges against her. It is unknown if she suffered a medical incident at the time of the crash.
If prisons are truly for rehabilitation and not punishment, what is she to be rehabilitated for? She already doesn’t have much time left, and being thrown into an overcrowded, run down prison purely out of spite would only serve to further reduce her life expectancy and waste state funds.
If anything, this is a symptom of the state’s over reliance on cars, and insufficient testing and certification of elderly drivers.
Faraday cages can attenuate most radio signals, not just WiFi. If you still want “AM radio”, VHF (“FM radio”, OTA TV), and cellular, you would need an external antenna for each of these.
Also, it’s unlikely that countries would be manufacturing their own renewable infrastructure. You would still need ships to haul solar panels, wind turbines, and batteries from China to destination ports.
Did someone say Blowback?
I love how you can’t even see the name of the paper, but everyone just instinctually knows it couldn’t be anything other than an American publication.
Believe me folks, America is respected again like it has never been respected before… America is now the hottest country in the world…
Rare earths aren’t just used in batteries, lol
Yes, it is more so the efficient processing and refining that is rare.
You can make a T-shirt anywhere, but if you have to first build your own cotton farms and factories locally, construction will take years and your shirts will cost 10x more.
I think bombs dropping on heads will still affect daily life.
Yes, then we will fight over Rare Earths.
the UK will be left with no choice
Doubt.
Wow, nice personal anecdote. It must be true, then. Let’s just ignore all medical evidence because you think it’s not true.
People age differently, and many people experience cognitive decline that impairs their decision-making, resulting in overestimation of their current, now-degraded abilities.
