He Makes A Good Point, But I Don't Completely Agree
Drifters Are The New Hot Rodders
At first glance there is little in common between hot rodding and drifting. One looks old, the other looks young. One looks like it plays heavily on tradition, while the other doesn’t seem interested.
But spend time in the two cultures and you see that they’re both filled with homebuilt cars tuned to destruction, packing dive bars and barbecues with tattoo’d punks, acting as havens for the weird, nerd, outcast speed freaks living in this country.
Get to know hot rodding and drifting and it becomes hard to see any differences between them, impossible to miss their similarities.

Yes, New Car Technology Is Encouraging & Exposing Bad Driving Habits
Are All Of These New Driving Technologies Actually Encouraging Bad Habits?
Well, that’s misleading and I apologize. The name of the technology is “lane keep assist” or “lane departure warning,” and it’s available on a majority of car brands, and works like this: A camera mounted in front of the rear view mirror recognizes the center and side lane divider lines and alerts the driver when a car has wandered over one of the two lines. Some systems tug on the steering of the car to encourage the driver to steer back into the lane. It’s not a perfect system — a lot of roads have poorly marked lines, so the systems don’t work on those roads.
