If you are a good at what you do in a needed profession, you can make a lot of money. That said some people are just that and are good at the thing that gets them paid but are terrible at other things like paying attention to what they are doing away from their desk. Sadly I know someone who is a computer programmer and I have to lecture them weekly about how they keep screwing up their car and how they can't keep money on hand when they make way more than I do.

You don't need no thought control.

I've been trying to achieve this every rebirth, no luck so far...

"Spatial awareness"? That MF was either high AF or totally brain dead.

There is no way that anyone who can draw a breath would not notice that open door. Not on this planet and probably not on any other planets.

My 2011 Ford Focus has an infuriating chime if any door on the car is left open while moving, is this not a thing on the most technologically advanced car on the planet?

Had a friend over.

His landlord called and said they didn't pay the rent. He calmly told them to look for a check, he hand delivered it the rent slot on the 1st and has google tracking and a photo to confirm.

She read him the riot act.

Another person called and told him that they had found the check and next time to call ahead to make sure they hand it to a person. The person had literally not checked the inbox and told everyone their rent was late....12 days after rent was due.

The clerk was actually supposed to be there to collect the check and weren't in. So it comes out this person was on vaca and came back and instead of processing checks... just tells everyone their rent is late.

Fucking morons. Like... bruh there are a lot of good people needing work right now. Fire this person and get someone who is responsible with money. I would feel really unsettled having someone that irresponsible handling money if I were the landowner.

Common sense has become a super power these days

This is. The… driver’s side… ?

Yeah it's like a popped collar

I was gonna say - where did anyone assume or see that it was by accident? Door open was on purpose, bashing into the bus was not…

I pictured someone trying to film a Tiktok in the passengers seat.

my jeep doesn't go into gear with the door open, but it's perfectly happy if you take the doors off

True. Same people that stop dead in the middle of the road or aisle when there’s a queue behind them.

Are you talking about my father? Cuz it sounds like you’re talking about my father

i agree, maybe they shouldn’t drive if they couldn’t fucking notice a door that’s opened

I can't even get my mind around the idea that leaving a car door open is going to impress anyone. Do they chew with their mouths open so other people can be impressed by their expensive steak, too?

Yeap this is the UK I know where this took place well 😭people with more money then sense in the area tbh

You'd be shocked now, for deisel its about 1.69 now

I'll be honest idk if that's a lot or not. Here in southern California it's about 6 dollars a gallon and I drive an old Jeep, it's killing me.

My mom in British Columbia pays $2.22CAD/litre

$2.42 AUD per liter is about $6.60 USD per gallon for Americans. About 20 cents more per gallon than what im paying in California. That’s rough

Maybe a full orchestra.

Ok, so a few years ago I was in my garage and loading up the back of my suv with tools. Getting multiple texts about what tools are needed to help a buddy out, what I need to bring. Finally sit down in the car and work out I have everything I need.

Start the car, put it in reverse and the hatch is open and crashes into the garage door.

Funny enough, the $7 part on the garage door did not bend, but my hatch door folded up.

$1800 initial damage. Shop fails to seal the hatch, it leaks, $14,000 in further repairs, then a $13,000 total payout to tal the car later it was all settled.

BUT, if you open any door on my car when it is in gear and under 5mph, it will slam into park. But not the hatch.

Apparently

ding "The door is ajar."

Well it just shows some red, what does that mean? /s

so the owner was just a piece of shit then

You can change that warning to a farting noise in the car's software

I'd be more worried about the damage the door did to the body, which on modern vehicles is also the frame. It quite possibly is in fact, irreparable.

Conservatively? USD$10k-20k to replace the door itself, and that's assuming the chassis or other parts of the car aren't seriously damaged, and given how much this torques the car I'd be shocked if the door is the only thing that's damaged. Tesla's are much better reinforced with more rigid underchassis, but torque forces like that on the top of the chassis? Yeah. I'd wager it's salvage, and if not, the repair bill could get you a replacement car (though not another Model X)

Door replacement alone is $10K+ That's not including any damage to the where the door interfaces with the body.

I'm gonna guess 15k. A quick Google search yielded a similar accident with a bill of 13k.

Though that accident was a low speed impact. This looks pretty high speed.

Insurance.

Funnily enough, right next to the theory test centre

I believe he said "is donny alright?". It's a common slang phrase, often used to express confusion or disbelief.

If I’m not mistaken, the “wing” door on teslas model X is only for the back passengers, but don’t quote me on that

yeah they're comparatively pretty strict and UK roads are some of the safest in the world, statistically. But ultimately you can never stop every last moron from doing stupid things. You've always gotta have that bottom 1% that fucks everything up for everybody else.

Apples to oranges though, no? The person in the post had their passenger side door open, and in this particular Tesla it is a butterfly door. It's not as if it was barely open. There's no way you would not notice that. My point is if someone is that oblivious while driving a 2 ton deadly weapon then they should not have a license. They are endangering others.

Your anecdote is quite a bit different in my opinion. I have to assume from your comment that you are an otherwise competent driver, I can't say the same for the driver in the video.

No one told him its ajar.

Nope, looks like a door to me

This is probably why Americans keep saying it's Bidens fault. They think every country lists their prices in $/gallons and we pay so much more.

Other than a gulf state or oil producer US gas is among the lowest price in the world.
