So how about the 1% so one out of a hundred die because the homeowner
didnt use ordinary care and intentially caused a hazard. Might be a
visiting child. While you might let go on a dry day a humid summer day
may be far different


As for maintaining a vehicle, what's to know? When you run out of gas, oil,
water, brake fluid, windshield washer, etc., you simply add more.-

So you run a 100 year or even 30 year old car, with no safety systems
like seat belts air bags and padded interiors as your daily driver?

Do you replace brake pads, inspect tires etc.

While your against rewiring a home that might cost 10 grand its likely
your driving a car that costs 30 grand or more and might last 13 years
till it goes to the junkyard. Thats the average age when vehicles get
scrapped.........

Try 45 years ago, to get earlier than seatbelts and modern brakes. 30
years ago would be a 1978-79 car, and most modern safety equipment came
along in the mid to late 60s.

I'd love to have my 1978 car back again. Beats the crap out of anything
I've had since then. Had most of the modern safety features- disc
brakes, R&P steering, good radial tires, modern padded interior, etc.
And was a damn sight more fun to drive with that 5-liter v8 and RWD. I
hope to own (or at least drive) a v8 again someday, before they outlaw
them or gas is five bucks a gallon, whichever comes first. Too bad it
melted like a sugar cube up here in salt country... :^(
