  • I used to be annoyed by this, then I got a car with fancy adaptive cruise control, now I just sit a second and a half behind them playing candy crush.

    Most harrowing driving that I've ever done.

  • The Tesla S I'm currently driving, pun intended, has autopilot. Utterly shit. It doesn't give cyclists as much room as it should.

Certain overbridges on the M4 in bright sun cause it to see the shadow as something huge.
