Take a look at that RTFA and maybe also take a look at the pictures of a car with absolutely NO DAMAGE. Not even a scratch. Do you really think that car was sandwiched? Really? Are you dumb?

There is also this quote: A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "The car was travelling at a low speed and officers carried out a controlled halt with the aid of a police vehicle. There was no damage to either vehicle" - are you implying the police is lying?

Also it is clearly an MG ZS EV and yes that car has adaptive cruise control.

This being an EV it can't actually sit still and have the "motor running". EVs simply don't work like that. If the motor turns, the car goes or at least the tires turn.

The car would have gone into automatic park when the driver left the car anyway.

All EVs are "automatics". Or rather they are single speed since they only have one gear. With you being so clever one would have thought you knew that?

Incidentally the "neutral" I can put my car into is just simulated as there is no physical way for the motor to disengage. Instead it means "no power" to the motor.

And oh, if YOU did RTFA you might have notice a picture of the inside of the car WITH NO STICK!

I don't own I car with a power button, so I don't know. I don't think you even can turn off my car while moving (a Tesla). But you can put it into neutral just by pushing the gear stalk upwards. Which someone unfamiliar with the car and in a panic probably wouldn't realise either.

I had that from another commenter. Indeed I can not find any mention of it being a rental. It was however brand new, meaning the guy was unfamiliar with the car.

It is extremely likely that he had something stuck under the brake pedal and he had adaptive cruise control activated. The motor was not stuck running and we know this because we were told a few key facts: The car slowed down for a roundabout. The car slowed down when the police car got in front of it. There was _no damage_ to either vehicle which means no actual collision. So what happened was the cruise control detected the police vehicle and stopped, probably using the brakes no less.

But what about trying to turn off the vehicle by pressing the power off button? We only have the _drivers explanation_ and clearly he did not press the correct button or hold it down long enough or any other explanation. The car was a rental and he simply did not know how to control the car. He could also just have pressed the cruise control off button, had he not been a complete idiot. Or maybe check why the brake was stuck.

A policeman got into the car and did "something" that caused the car to stay still. Something being pressing the correct off button and putting the car into park.

The only surprise here is that the guy still has his drivers license...

We can deduct that adaptive cruise control was active and the driver did not know how to deactivate it. It would have deactivated if he had pressed the brakes, but he clearly did not, because then the car would have stopped. Everything else can be explained by a driver in panic pressing the wrong buttons.

Everything about this being an EV is moot. The same thing could happen in any modern car with cruise control.

We may speculate as to why this guy could not find the brakes. He could be an idiot (clearly the case). There could be a foreign object stuck under the pedal or the pedal could be broken in some other way. I will put my money on the guy taking off his shoes which then became stuck under the pedal. I mean it is as good an explanation as any right?
 

Here in Denmark the Tesla Model Y is the most sold car including ICE cars. Tesla is also the brand with most sold cars, including ICE cars, in 2023. How is that neither a major player nor leading?

But does it have basica or gwbasic?

My IBM model 30 only had 20 MB HDD and what is that 275 MB nonsense? Impossible!

At least here in Denmark there are plans to auction the same space. Frequencies in the disputed space are valuable and airlines are not going to stop the use just because they want to save on upgrading the altimeter radar.

"And why would religious radicals steal oil from the people around them that share the same religion?"

Because they do not believe in democracy yet do not agree on who the leader should be. That can only lead to one thing.

In HDD drilling everything used is compatible with the environment. A lot of the drilling fluid is going to stay in the hole even on a successful operation, so it has to be safe for ground water and soil, otherwise you will not get the permits for working.

There is a battery and a little electronics in the drilling head, but otherwise some iron got returned to mother earth. That's all.

Drilling fluid is usually just bentonite. It is dirt mixed with water. Sometimes they also include other stuff in the mix, but in all cases the fluid is going to stay in the hole, so has to be safe for the environment.

I used to think the same but then the USB C port on my rather expensive Samsung S9 went bad. Almost replaced the phone before I thought of trying wireless charging.

Using wireless charging at home or where you charge the most will make that USB port live that much longer.

That IPv4 block can still be used. It is worth approximately 6000 USD. Sell it.

Aside from that, anything smaller than /24 is unroutable. Basically everyone filters more specifics and it is going to be as hard to change that as to implement IPv6.
