@JacobEthanWhite @rabonour I once got boxed in by a semi truck and a car behind me going the speed limit. The semi started drifting into my lane. Options were exceed the speed limit to get out of the box or die. What would you do?

@schmangee I have 2.5 acres in rural San Mateo County. My extended cab, full-bed pickup truck fits in my driveway just fine, and would fit in the garage if the tractor weren’t in there. And I use the bed about 20% of the trips I take. Trucks have uses, but they suck in SF.

@CanadaRobin @thedragstate I’ll have what the man on the floor was drinking.

@caltrainbikepro @thedragstate The drunk guy at the bar is rolling around on a tennis ball and pushing it towards me with their nose to throw.

@caltrainbikepro @NoSpandexReq Came here to say this. Was not disappointed that someone got there before me.

@paul_geimer @Muzer0 @andyjayhawk I apologize. I just ran all the numbers and measurements and your diagram is to scale +/- 1 pixel per foot. It didn’t appear that way, but the numbers don’t lie.

[Caltrain Issues @CaltrainIssues]

@riehle_deal Maybe fewer cars and some safer pedestrian crosswalks.

[Caltrain Issues @CaltrainIssues]

@paul_geimer @Muzer0 @andyjayhawk Wheelbase is misleading for visibility. You can’t see under your bumper from the drivers seat no matter the vehicle. A 2001 CR-V is 177.6” and a 2021 Escalade is 211.9” bumper to bumper.

[Caltrain Issues @CaltrainIssues]

@Muzer0 @paul_geimer @andyjayhawk Drawings are not to scale. I just measured them out.

[Caltrain Issues @CaltrainIssues]

@paul_geimer @andyjayhawk How about some truth in advertising with scale diagrams? This suggests that the Escalade is like 30 feet long.

@amrook That looks like the road I live on. We have mountain lions in the woods, mostly at night. I'm not creeped out. I'm genuinely concerned about getting mauled.

@BrandyLJensen The man loves his trains. It's his most endearing trait!
