Reply to comment by sqqueen2 in Where do the emergency exits in the Squirrel Hill tunnel come out? Wouldn’t they have to be In people’s backyards? by sqqueen2
Why would you go up out of a tunnel? 1) the heat and smoke of a fire would follow you. 2) that's probably the slowest way to evacuate. 3) that's not at all useful for disabled people.

Reply to Any other PRT headaches today? by dtb33
Depending on where your bus comes from, it may have been late because 1) there was a crash outside the inbound Fort Pitt Tunnel that closed the tunnel early this morning, and 2) there was a downed powerline on Parkway East outbound near Forbes according to the morning news. I know they had the tunnel reopened a while ago but idk about the power line.

Reply to Does PA Have Enhanced Licenses? by idekbruno
Dept. of Homeland Security specifically states REAL ID is not an acceptable document for crossing into Canada. (12th question in the FAQ list)
https://www.dhs.gov/real-id/real-id-faqs
14th question says you still need a passport for international travel.
16th question lists states with Enhanced Drivers Licenses (which are acceptable for border crossings), and PA is not on the list.

Not open yet. I drive the Parkway daily and they still have the electronic signs up saying it's closed.

First Ave Garage is just down Grant St and around the corner. Not terribly expensive for the convenience.
Mellon Square Garage would be my 2nd choice but that's a bit of a tight Garage.

Bravo, Industry Public House (great option if you like beer), Ichiban, Walnut Grill
A little more chain-ish, there's also Red Robin, Longhorn Steakhouse, Outback Steakhouse, Red Lobster, Olive Garden, and a couple others

It was, but damn were they slow! Between the water resistance and under-powered engines, you had to make course corrections more in-advance than I had anticipated and really mash the throttle. I expected something so relatively-small (for a watercraft) to be a little more nimble than it was.

I actually got to drive the boat in the river once! My cousin was in town with her toddler and we decided to take him. They asked if anybody wanted to drive. I did but felt weird raising my hand since I was like 25 and felt like it was meant for the kids. Nobody wanted to, so I took my chance since I love learning to drive different vehicles.

They absolutely do not. Every location around me still stops at 10:30 on weekdays and 11 on weekends.

Reply to Ok, I'm officially old by Malarazz
I'm 32 and my hair is starting to thin, I still get carded everywhere I go. I understand they do it for liability reasons, but how much more hair do I need to lose before they stop?
Though it is nice that the gun store salespeople know me well enough and stopped asking 🤣

Not a bad color, but rather obnoxious for a bridge, IMO.

Contest in person. Making the effort to dress decently and show up in court shows you care and are respectful of the judiciary, which goes a long way.
