Do you refuse to take a car to the airport?

• Angostura 7y ago
  Only the cars that are subject to mandatory recalls.
  • ISL 7y ago
    After the recalls have been addressed?

      Depends on if they cheated through the initial inspection. Of course mistakes happen, but Boeing explicitly bribed FAA.
      • AnimalMuppet 7y ago
        That's quite an accusation. Do you have evidence for it?
    • StuffedParrot 7y ago
      By “addressed” what are you referring to wrt Boeing?

  This is stupid; let people have their own values and convictions. Also there is a train to most airports to avoid taking a car.

    People are allowed to have their own convictions, I'm also allowed to call them stupid given they follow no data whatsoever.

      No you can't, not on HN. Please see the guidelines here: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

      You didn't call anyone stupid, you asked a passive aggressive question designed to demean without advancing any worldviews or assertions of your own. That's fucking stupid.

  If it was a 1978 Ford Pinto (one of the most unsafe cars ever made), you bet I would not get in it. The MAX is basically a Pinto for me.
  • xxpor 7y ago
    That's a silly comparison. The risk of death from flying in a MAX is still wildly lower than the risk of dying in the safest car on a mile by mile basis.
    • rburhum 7y ago
      I 100% agree that is a silly comparison. Just a reminder that you initially made the analogy, not me.
