This Is A Historical Crime Fail

Car Thief Suspect Caught Because Rattle-Canning A Rare Ford GT40 Replica Fooled Nobody

In what has to be one of the dumbest cases of car thefts I’ve ever heard of, police in Mashalltown, Iowa, caught a suspect driving a stolen Ford GT40 replica that had been painted black—likely to disguise what has to be the only example of such car in the small city of 30,000 residents. Who did this guy think he was fooling?

Steve Salasek, who works in Marshall County, Iowa, reported his bright yellow 1966 Ford GT40 replica stolen last Tuesday after noticing it missing from a storage locker, KCCI 8 News Des Moines reports. Upon hearing of the swiped supercar replica, Marshalltown police put out a public notice on the city’s Facebook page.

Within a day of reaching out to locals on Facebook, Marshalltown PD recovered the Ford GT40 Replica, finding the suspect driving the car—now painted black—on a residential street.

Humans Don't Handle Abrupt Braking In Autonomous Cars Very Well

The Freep explains what they found:

They discovered that when passengers unexpectedly had the brakes slammed, they pitched forward as much 8 inches despite wearing a seat belt in the front passenger seat. That’s a significant amount of movement while being restrained and has implications as an increasing number of vehicles employ emergency braking and other types of self-driving technology.

Automatic braking systems tend to brake harder than you or I would, the Freep says. So for passengers inside an autonomous car, especially if they’re not expecting it, that could cause them to dramatically pitch forward. The Freep goes on:

Reed said the research could be used to help design features that automatically adjust seat belts or send out a warning sound before the brakes are applied or before the vehicle maneuvers to avoid a crash.

It’s an interesting dynamic to consider as automakers are feverishly working to develop self-driving cars and bring them to the market. A number of carmakers have staked out ambitious timelines to have autonomous cars that don’t require human intervention on the road by next decade.

This Could Be Said Of 30 Somethings, Too

A leadership expert says too many 20-somethings make the same mistake when they take a new job

I think one of the challenges that millennials face is impatience, which is after being at a job for a few months if it's not their “dream job,” they bump and find a new one. But the problem is you won't know that in a few months, especially when you’re entry level.
 
So, if you're going to just take a job at least use it as an education. If it's not the job you love, then learn. Learn from the bad leadership that you're experiencing. Learn from the things that you like and don't like.
