If we'd put the same effort into car and roads safety, there would not be any car accidents.

And cars would cost $2M each, and you'd have to have a complete overhaul after every oil change.
People are the major cause of traffic accidents, not mechanical failures, and I don't see that changing any time soon.

The article doesn't mention China, or the Chinese. Why the gratuitous subject line?
Not to suggest that you're wrong, you're probably 100% right. I'm not coming to their defense. I just thought it came out of nowhere.

|
|

Right. I didn't need any convincing that any of that wasn't true.

Perhaps to answer your inquiry the fact of such theft is much on my mind. It troubles me that China and of course Russia are stealing from us. Every time I read an article such as this I am reminded of these facts. It seems this is a peculiarity of myself.

What do you call the white line on the outer edge of the road when there is no kerb? (leftpond: curb)
I know what I (and my firefighting colleagues) call it, but I'm interested in the wider world's usage.

That's what we call it, but I'm pretty sure I didn't know the term until about 20 years ago.
And I'd been a licensed driver for 40 odd years by then.

In my state its generally considered a no-passing line. Snow line would not make sense in many US states.

Huh? and huh?
I was referring to the line along the EDGE of the road, not a centre line.
I never mentioned snow.

I meant white line on side of road. If the side of the road is paved shoulder, you can use it stop temporarily (car breaks down, etc). The white separates the main lane from the shoulder (if any). This means one cannot use that part of the road for passing unless exiting the road or the road is temporarily block. States may vary on these rules. Sorry I mixed up fog and snow. Doh.

In Denmark, we simply call it “sidestriben”, the side line or side stripe, as opposed to “midterlinjen”, the middle line/stripe.
