Are you intentionally misstating what I am saying? I will chose to think you are not and simply don’t understand the point of either article or what the majority of the posts in this thread are about.
If you read you will see most are not about being inconvenienced they are about town records being gone, inaccessible or held hostage. I was pointing out none of those are the case and all the records this company has, the 18% of the state property record, are available for free at your town clerks office. (Or potentially $4/hr max for you to access the books)
While the company adds value, the response to a private data reseller being offline is, for lack of a better term, ignorant.
If you and your business are experiencing hardships because a private company goes offline, that really sucks for you but is not the same as state records being lost or unavailable.
If you can’t see the difference then I’m not sure what to tell you.

I was not aware of that statute and updated my post, thank you.

> A motor vehicle, except a motorcycle and motor-driven cycle, in use or at rest on a highway, unless otherwise provided, during the period from 30 minutes after sunset to 30 minutes before sunrise, shall also be equipped with at least two lighted head lamps of substantially the same intensity and with reflectors and lenses of a design approved by the Commissioner of Motor Vehicles and with a lighted tail or rear lamp of a design so approved.
Not sure if that means the intensity has to be approved by the commissioner or just the reflectors and lenses? Im just trying to figure out what the case is now so that when I go to my rep I have as full a picture as possible.

They’ve had that in Europe for quite some time, not sure it’s really new tech at this point. New to us but actually old tech

I’m referring to the idea that people in some neighborhoods will petition their town governments to lower the speed limits for perceived safety reasons. Whether that’s actually effective and scientifically provable is another matter. But in such cases you might not think that was in your personal best interest (although we might argue that point as well).

That’s fair, I’m somebody that tries to signal out of roundabouts but I also don’t trust others signals out of a roundabout haha

Came here to say this. My vet calls it the “Hermès of preventive medications.”

Is the person French, like France, or do they have a thing for French cheese?
France does have some delightful pue fromage.

I don't think it's required, but it ought to be in my opinion. Often I'll be at the circle yielding to someone already in the intersection only for them to take the exit right before me with no signal and it feels extremely rude. I always signal out of a rotary, and people seem to appreciate it because it saves then a little bit of time or keeps them from having to stop

Yeah after days of dry roads and unseasonably warm weather, I did wait till people legitimately should be slowing down to mention it, but it is a fair weather issue I'm talking about even mid July this was happening.

Maybe you should look into getting them adjusted.

AFAIK signaling out of a roundabout is not legally required right? I just tried to look it up and what I found says it’s not a requirement but that you are supposed to signal all changes in directions so now I’m not as sure as I was before I started this comment lol

Picked an ironic day to post given the nasty weather and the picture of the car that was obviously going too fast when turning and ended up stopped… off the bank

It’s is their job to maintain the records and provide you access, not do your research for you. Nobody is saying you will be called a prick, but expecting the town clerk to pull records for you is peak entitlement.
