But if there's one group that absolutely should not stay hydrated, it's modern electric vehicles, because a few drops could leave them with a massive medical bill. Just ask Reddit user u/raging_onyx who leased a Lucid Air and saw his Thanksgiving week turn into a $15,000 lesson in why electric cars and water should never meet. The disaster started with a perfectly innocent trip to a grocery store to refill a water container. But a pothole encountered on the way back tipped that container over, causing a catalog of faults…...

The move comes after the Austin Independent School District (AISD) recorded at least 19 incidents where Waymo's robotaxis either slowed down inadequately or continued past stopped school buses, an infraction that would result in hefty fines for any human driver. The company acknowledged that a software defect caused its vehicles to incorrectly assess stopped school buses, leading them to hesitate briefly before proceeding instead of waiting. Although Waymo issued a patch on November 17 aimed at correcting the behavior, AISD reported yet another violation on December 1, signaling that the fix did not fully address the underlying detection gap. While no injuries have been reported, the repeated violations have unsettled school officials, parents, and regulators who consider school…...

58+ min ago (493+ words) If there has ever been an EV conversion that retained much of the combustion car driving experience, it has to be this BMW 1602 (which BMW actually turned into an EV in 1972). From the outside, it looks like nothing has changed, and its builders wanted to keep the driving experience as close to the original by keeping the manual gearbox. But it actually goes further than that. As Richard Morgan from Electric Classic Cars, who converted this BMW around seven years ago, explains, the motor was carefully chosen. They specifically searched for a motor with a similar torque delivery and rev range as the original combustion engine, making it a necessity to change gear when hitting the same redline as before. Like all of these EV conversions that retain the original transmission, you can slot it into second or third, leave…...

They might have a lot of powerful weapons, but might not be able to last thanks to drones and cheap missiles." The Soviet Union-era Kirov-class battlecruiser was one impressive beast. The Russians called it the…...

1+ hour, 43+ min ago (310+ words) After releasing two high-tech sedans meant to be sold worldwide, the N6 and N7, Nissan's Chinese arm, a joint venture with Dongfeng, officially announced its first high-riding model. Meet the NX8 " a midsize SUV that's so high-tech, it makes the Nissan Pathfinder " yes, even the recently updated version " look ancient by comparison. The NX8 is part of Nissan's new N-series, representing the legacy brand's aggressive strategy in China's tightly contested new-energy vehicle market. While Nissan still plays it safe in the US (hello, Rogue Plug-In Hybrid), the NX8 leans hard into fast charging, advanced software, and China-specific EV expectations. In terms of size, the NX8 sits in the midsize SUV segment, though it's slightly shorter than America's Pathfinder. It measures 191.7 inches long, 75.6 inches wide, and 66.1 inches tall, riding on a 114.8-inch wheelbase. Interior details haven't been fully disclosed yet, but the tech direction is clear. The…...

It comes as snowfall across the country changes driving conditions and officials issue reminders about visibility laws. A common mistake drivers make, especially if they are in a rush, is to clear the windshield and think that is enough. However, that could get them in trouble if it has snowed and they park outside. Significant snow build-up on the top of vehicles poses a major hazard as it could slide off and damage other vehicles. As well as fines, drivers in the state of Ohio could also face charges if their vehicle is considered "unsafe. read more on driving Drivers can be hit with a minor misdemeanor if snow from their roof causes damage and…...

1+ hour, 57+ min ago (389+ words) Wisconsin and California both crack down on truck windshield lighting modifications while citizens raise good questions Folks who drive their own commercial vehicle for a living often customize it to suit their taste. It is, after all, sort of like their office. The problem for some is that said office is out in public at all times, and some flair won't fly from a legal perspective. That's why police are reminding truckers that those fancy green "eye" lights available for sale aren't approved for on-road use. Now, the interaction between police and truckers are raising more questions. Are These Lights Actually Dangerous? On December 2, the Wisconsin State Patrol pulled over a trucker with the aforementioned green LED "eyes.' "Hey Mack, we see you," it wrote. "Distractions come in all shapes and sizes.
