Because who needs autonomous vehicles when we can trust our lives to rat taxis, these are a couple videos of rescue pet rats Kronk and Kuzko demonstrating their driving skills while being taught by their owners how to steer their own little cars. It appears the car has three buttons:
Presumably determined to never get spun around by a red shell or banana peel again, this is a video of a dude cruising around in his homemade 19-tire go kart (I partiand a coffin-shaped gas tank right behind the seat). ULTRA TRACTION. Although most of those tires look like they’re
Because everybody uses their spare time differently (I have no spare time), this is a video of Youtuber Chris Makes Stuff constructing a hubless, electric penny farthing bike. The hubless design is cool, but the motorization is a must — pedaling is one of my least favorite part of riding

This is a video of a cyclist swerving to avoid a car that blatantly turns right in front of him (I suspect that car does NOT have a ‘Share The Road’ bumper sticker attached) and crashing into the balloon display a worker is setting up. Did those balloons actually help
This is a video of Youtuber Levi Does Stuff doing some stuff. In this case, giving us a tour of his parents’ Buick having recently returned home from a trip to the mechanic, after which every button and switch in the cockpit activates the car’s horn, except the horn, which
