what are the chances the replacement gear fails before that old gear would have, even if its inefficient and 100 years old.

[alr33x]

very high

[blah_blah]

everyone please be conscious of electricity usage today, mk. Thanks.

Currently work planning for some upgrades near the Eildon & Rubicon hydro power stations. Transformers here were installed in 1914, getting ripped out this year. Will make sure to give them their letter from the queen. That shit is asset sweating to the max. Never even heard of equipment so old, even in the UK.

Could secretly be the Decepticons

Stay safe when playing with Transformers

its more of the case the old gear more likely to essplode during peak loads like on day like today. and the things are leaking oil like no tomorrow. (its all bunded, but dont tell EPA)

replacements could be decepticons. Will have to ask before they get switched on.

Not sure haven't read into the story much, but seems as tho the driver was being a dick before hand

"Witnesses have told us they were overtaken by the Kia, and saw it go through an earlier intersection where the lights flashed."

The road was still closed when I went through it in the morning as well.

Terrible.

[alr33x]

LOOOOOOL

[Leroy Peterson]

Thats shocking. also a terrible article, I still have no clue who was where, who was driving what car or if they even knew/caught the person responsible.

on a lighter note: only time I'd probably own an Evo/engine

my god that was brutal

[colourclassic]

Wish that dashcam video showed the point of impact and aftermath. If anything, would have worked just on shock value to show all the morons and airheads out on the roads what happens when they run reds/don't pay attention etc.

Those TAC campaigns show all the gore and shit, and it's all just manufactured to teach people. Using a real example would really hit home I reckon.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

TOO MUCH... I doubt the families would sign off on it...

I think out of respect for the victims families it's not really appropriate

[colourclassic]

Yea I can see your point. I guess a good analogy would be an organ donor: the ability to prevent another's death through a life lost . Showing people the real deal would be more effective than showing some scripted CGI commercial which everyone knows isn't real.

^this @L33SH

I've seen a few fatalities on the roads and stopped with my old man to help before emergency services have come, it's pretty disturbing for someone that has no relation to the victims let alone a family seeing it
