    I would argue that cars do not fall under that category. here is my reasoning (which maybe totally wrong): the definition refers to 'vehicle that weigh... and requires more than one person to operate' Your run-of-the-mill car may be less than 5000 pounds and certainly does not need more than one person to operate. It further goes on to say: 'Cars... and other industrial vehicles that require special training or licensing to operate' this refers imo to special purpose vehicle which need in-depth training or additional licensing beyond the normal DL. maybe a tow truck or a coach something along these lines.

     

    Afaik the notion on the medication is targeted at real heavy machinery like, cranes, diggers, caterpillars, tanks, space ships and the likes ;), as the ordinary traffic laws strictly speaking already prohibit you to drive a car under the influence (be it legal or illegal drugs/substances).

    Now I'm more concerned who lets you operate heavy machinery (and why you consider a car heavy machinery)

    "Additionally, heavy machinery refers to any type of vehicle that weighs more than 5,000 pounds and requires more than one person to operate. Cars, tractors, trucks, buses, forklifts, and other industrial vehicles that require special training or licensing to operate are included." (source)

     

    why do you think so many medications n shit are like "do not operate heavy machinery after using" or whatever!!! I hadn't considered that cars would fall under heavy machinery until someone pointed it out to me, but it does make sense

    Can we fight over why you can select multiple options despite them all being fairly contradictory to each other?

    i dont drive but i would rather cut off my index finger with a butter knife than pull into a spot backward. unless i need my biennial dose of heavy machinery razzle dazzle. open your little mind silly man

    The only thing popping up with that search criteria are VHLE related pages... Turkish Grey Wolves however is a different matter. Applying your logic would mean to ban all Canadian franchises because Quebec is in Canada...

    that is actually a really good idea. all canadian franchises should be relocated.

     

    while we're at it, we should also relocate all american franchises as well (especially NYA) because an alt-right group committed a domestic terrorist attack

    hi all, i'm trying to clear out my bookshelf and am throwing an offer out here to y'all. if you want any of these books, i'll be happy to send them to you. preference would be to split shipping cost, but i don't need anything for the books themselves. feel free to send me a dm if you're interested. i have most of them because i read them in college, but despite being assigned reading, most of them are actually good reads. they'll otherwise be donated to a thrift store or put into one of the little libraries we have around town

     

    edit: these have been donated already!
