I just finished it a few days ago and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Good thing I read it before my transportation engineering class. Although I did feel called out by the last paragraph in the acknowledgements about taking pictures of intersections lol

The cookout menu is the closest thing we have today to the old broadsheet mix of typefaces

The burger section of the cookout menu
Black background on the top, very bright green on the bottom
the text is multicolored, mostly white and yellow, with some red and blue
Several different fonts are used and there are some icons placed around

I'm mad that Virginia Tech 1. doesn't require engineering ethics and 2. I can't even take it even though I want to because it is a graduate only class with prerequisites limited to civil engineering students only ahhh

You'd probably enjoy this livery that my friend made for assetto corsa

I like the pedestrian island with only one way onto and off of it with 4 square inches of grass in the center

When I worked at a honda dealership I was annoyed that the maintenance minder only counted 9999 miles past due for an oil change and many cars came in like maxed out.

I think this will only be more common with the terrible designs of shifters in cars recently. Give me back the PRNDL

I saw an Ann Arbor Railroad train stop before the crossing at blank slate creamery, the conductor get out, then come back a few minutes later with 2 ice cream cones

The honda hybrid system is a series hybrid (with a lock up clutch for higher speeds) which explains why their hybrids get underwhelming fuel economy. It always baffled me that they chose that. I had a coworker with a clarity that would get about 35 mpg after the battery ran out.

The click of a torque wrench is actually just to emulate the sound the bolt makes when it snaps at the correct torque

Airbus(t) As much planespotting could be cool, the area immediately surrounding it is just so hostile. At least at the other stop there is a sidewalk across the street
