More veggies, less Smuckers

It'd be cool if you could tap into the OBD2 dongle and find what its criteria is that denotes "rapid accelerations" or "hard braking" and them reprogram it to dampen that curve and never report more than maybe 5% less than what would trigger an acceleration or braking flag

Very true, I was focusing more on the story's driver being "surprised" and "stunned" by the amount of data collected and that all that date didn't convince an Insurance Company's algorithm he was a driver worthy of paying them less than his current premium. I expect upwards of 90% of drivers would be stunned as well that they are not as good of a driver as they imagine and that "I've never having an accident" doesn't carry as much weight with the algorithm as they might have hoped.

Kinda like those who choose to be in the Progressive Insurance "Snapshot" program where you install an OBD2 dongle that reports a lot of data about your driving habits back to Progressive in the dim chance you drive so well that they will lower your rates.

I've seen many examples of real death portraits with the child or other family member made up to look "alive" but this would be a bit extreme

I spend a couple of hours each morning with coffee exploring a majority selection of these sites to get a quality overview.

That's what suppressors are for

Maybe I missed it but the article actually does not tell/show you where these secret locations are. A red dot on a map that doesn't zoom in well enough is kinda useless.
