Hertz decided the accident was partly my fault, so they gave me a one year DNR (Do Not Rent).

A few months later Tesla lowered their prices, California offered me a big rebate to buy an EV, and the companies I drive for give a bonus for driving an EV. That means an EV is 20% cheaper and 35% more fun to drive than a similar size gas car.

From mountain bike riding, I learned to follow the rider in front of me. I follow their path around rocks, or avoid obstacles the rider in front has trouble with. The same thing applies to driving on the freeway, if the car in front swerves to avoid debris on the freeway, I copy their move.

Before I could even drive, I liked car rides. I liked going with my parents whenever they drove anywhere. Now I have a fun but low paying job where I get paid to drive all around Los Angeles and the surrounding areas.
