Jay Leno’s star power wasn’t enough to persuade a California legislative committee to pass a measure to allow owners of classic cars like him to be exempted from the state’s rigorous smog-check requirements.
Imagine being rich and famous and this is your political cause. What an effing creep.
Leaving a car in a garage is absolutely not environmentally devastating. That’s got to be one of the silliest things I’ve read on here in a while.
They mean a large garage takes up land, after so many houses with a giant garage you could have space for dense housing which is proven to be better for the environment. Urban sprawl is a waste in many areas.
You can spin it whatever way you want, it was stupid and that’s not what they said.
Its exactly what they wrote …we have as much land devoted to housing cars as people etc. The inference meaning it is inefficient use of land, and everyone knows urban sprawl is a terrible waste and creates additional costs
Of course it’s silly when you can’t actually understand the words you read.
Look outside at all the land used to park cars and the point of their comment should be painfully clear.
Looks like a lot of people down voting can’t fathom land use efficiencies
Or scale. “Leaving a car in a garage is jot environmentally devastating” is true but they also show that they can’t think of what would happen if hundreds of thousands of people started needing parking spaces. It’s always “I’m not personally hurting anyone so should be able to do whatever I want” and never “my activity participates in a net negative and I should seek to figure out if I really need to do continue doing it”.
