ghetdjc320 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 If a certain vehicle takes someone out of their comfort zone, they probably shouldn’t be driving that vehicle. A person who is overly cautious can cause accidents just like a person who is overly confident (the on-ramp is a great example of this). A Comanche doesn’t seem like that old of a vehicle to me but that’s just because I grew up riding in tri-5’s and early mustangs that my dad and I would work on. I recall the accelerator linkage getting stuck at full throttle, brakes going out and having to pump them up to get any stopping power, a rear end getting locked up going down the road etc etc. Cars are definitely safer today. Although I do find that there seems to be a tendency towards complacency when you have certain “smart” car features. There really aren’t any regulations regarding modding your vehicle. You can basically re-engineer the entire thing and there isn’t anyone who’s going to check that work. Throw some shoddy work in the mix and that’s a recipe for disaster. Imagine a welded control arm, crossover steering or track bar giving out while driving… the scenarios are endless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

75sv1 Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 I couldn't find the KIA and Chevy truck tire accident out in CA, this morning. Dukes of Hazard would be jealous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
