That's not what the article says is happening. The Tesla is alerting because the radar sees the (black) car in front of the (red) car in front (of the Tesla) is decelerating, even if the red car isn't, it's alerting because of that. It doesn't "know" they'll be an accident, it just predicts that it will have to slow.
For a 12-hour shift, I'd typically travel 200 miles. A good day would be 250+. About 1/2 of those miles were with the meter on.
Every so often I'd get a good fare going in the wrong direction - passenger was going east at the end of my day, and I'd have to backtrack empty to return the cab on the west side of the valley to the next driver. It was 94 miles to get back to the Valley from Globe...
Depends where it's going, I guess? Other factors like A/C take as much power in stop-and-go as when driving. As I said, rough estimate. I would assume a typical taxi would drive more than 200 miles per working day; isn't this a reasonable assumption?

Depends on how much time you spend on the freeway. For me, a typical 12-hour shift covered about 200 miles. Some days I didn't work the full 12 hours; other days I 'got lucky' and had to cover a lot of ground.
One of my better fares was a guy who'd pissed off his girlfriend by (probably) getting obnoxiously drunk at the Lakers/Suns game... It was 89 miles to get him home, then I had to drive 94 miles to get the cab back to the day driver:
It was an attachment that plugged in the bottom of the phone. I don't remember being particularly impressed by the quality of the photos. It was getting chucked in with the phone eventually
> Overall these theories provide a plausible and useful guide to the possible mechanisms by which a high-GI diet and dairy products can exert their effects in the pathogenesis of acne and can explain in part why people native to Papua New Guinea and Paraguay, living non-Westernized lifestyles, have no acne compared with more Westernized populations such as in Belgium (Table 2 and Table S1; see Supporting Information). However, they provide only the first step to understanding the link between diet and acne.
