It's strange to me that if the drone entered Lithuania's territory from Poland, why the air threat was declared only in Northern Lithuania. This is unacceptable to me. We will investigate. The military has been tasked with gathering all the information and presenting it to me in detail. We will also clarify with the Fire Protection and Rescue Service why the messages were not sent in time, if that was the case. Minister of National Defense Robertas Kaunas reported that the drone debris possibly damaged a civilian vehicle. #dronas #PasvalioRajonas #oroAtaka (translated)

Ultimora.net reported that the new Highway Code, approved by the Council of Ministers and set to come into force on January 1, 2028, will introduce stricter rules for pedestrians. According to the site, before crossing at crosswalks, they should check that drivers have seen them and are ready to stop; they should not change direction abruptly or dash while crossing. The site also listed other prohibitions: crossing intersections diagonally, weaving between parked cars, crossing outside the crosswalks at roundabouts or in front of stopped buses and trams, popping out suddenly and crossing near curves and bumps outside built-up areas. On unlit roads outside of built-up areas, at night it would be necessary to make oneself visible with lights or reflective devices. In the absence of crosswalks, underpasses, or overpasses, or if the crosswalks were at least 100 meters away, pedestrians should give way to vehicles and cross perpendicularly. In the absence of sidewalks, they should walk against the direction of traffic, while using skates and boards on sidewalks would be prohibited. Ultimora.net added that the penalty for using a phone while crossing would be eliminated and that violations could result in fines of 25 to 160 euros. #CodicedellaStrada #SicurezzaStradale #Pedoni (translated)

Jiří Coufal stated that when leaving the ramp, an active element was likely embedded in the floor of the Tesla Roadster. He believed it could be part of the "sucker" system, which he thought was supported by the cloud of dust behind the car. Although the underside footage of the floor appeared exposed and no such element was visible, Coufal judged that the car could have some mechanism of this type. He was disappointed that less attention was paid to his explanation than to the active wing, and hoped that further information about its operation would emerge in the following days. #Tesla #Roadster #automobilismus (translated)
