Those Darn New Cars!

from The Thing About Cars

Gen-Xers complain about left lane bandits and new car features. After some exhaustive research, Ben lets us know which vehicles are most likely to be Left Lane Bandits and slow us down in the fast lane. The gang relates their tales of woe regarding newer vehicles and their safety features such as lane departure warnings and corrections, virtual overhead backup cameras, blind spot monitors, and reminders to keep your hands on the wheel. Misty tells us about the world's (or at least The Netherlands') smallest bagpipe parade and we wonder anyone will let us on TV. In trivia, we find out how to limber up our nylon parts (is it via yoga?) We welcome your support via Patreon and your questions and feedback via our website.
