Under no circumstances do you "gotta hand it to him," but allowing Kei trucks and similar small vehicles on US roads is a colossally stupid idea.

Even Japan basically segregates them from other traffic because they're utter death traps.

She (correctly) clocked him as someone who doesn't read, and he's spent the past three weeks making it everyone's problem.

Some years ago, I played in a tabletop Star Wars Saga Edition game, and my character was a Wookiee. I also spoke Shyriiwook in-character, and another party member who was a protocol Droid would improvise what he imagined my dialog to be.
