AdvertisementYet when and how ICE agents use deadly force has long been shrouded in secrecy. ICE agents shot people in public places, such as traffic intersections and strip-mall parking lots. Yet in over half of the shootings we identified, ICE agents never made an arrest. But Ramos still became one of dozens of people on the receiving end of an ICE agent's deadly force. A significant number of the shootings documented in the logs happened while ICE agents were off-duty or in plain clothes.

But people looking for a flashy new design in Tesla's more traditional car lineup are stuck waiting for now. The Model S and Model X used to be the ultimate status symbol. In 2020, TikTok star Addison Rae made headlines when she was spotted in her bright pink Tesla Model X. And the design of the Model S and Model X hasn't been meaningfully updated since 2021. "If you start announcing some great thing, it affects our near-term sales," Musk said on Tuesday.

The update includes new parental controls, with a range of features that can be enabled with a vehicle PIN, the reports said. That reportedly includes something called "Night Curfew," which could make it easier for Tesla parents to enforce their teenagers' bedtimes. If and when "Night Curfew" and the other parental controls are released publicly, they'll add to the other features that help Teslas stand out from other cars. AdvertisementWhile the new features may soothe some parents' concerns about their teen's driving, Tesla has made headlines in the past with incidents involving children.

A prototype of an electric NASCAR race car sits on the lawn during the NASCAR Xfinity Series The Loop 110 at the Chicago Street Course on July 6, 2024. NASCAR on Saturday unveiled a prototype electric race car as part of a new initiative that aims to reduce the organization's emissions and electrify aspects of the sport. The vehicle's debut, in partnership with the electrification and automation company ABB, came one day before NASCAR's Chicago Street Race. The "ABB NASCAR EV Prototype," developed in collaboration with Chevrolet , Ford and Toyota , is an electrified stock car that can produce 1,000 kW (or 1341 horsepower) at peak power. Like most existing hybrid or full-electric vehicles, the race car has a regenerative braking system that converts kinetic energy from braking into electrical power.

☆ Rent a car for a road trip, or drive your own? 5 things to consider
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-05 | by ( Greg Iacurci | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +5 min

For some car owners, it might be more financially savvy to rent a vehicle for a road trip than use their own, experts said. Drivers would need to compare total rental costs — the daily rental rate and potential add-ons like insurance — versus those of operating their own car. "Most people will be shocked at what it actually costs to own and operate their car," Brannon said. The cost of rental car insurance might add $30 to $61 to the daily rate, depending on insurance type, according to Allianz Travel, citing MarketWatch data. Car owners may already get full coverage on a rental via their own car insurance policies, or may have some coverage through credit-card benefits, Brannon said.

Mark Bertolini has helped Oscar Health move toward profitability after taking over as CEO of the health insurer a year ago. Now, he says the company's next phase of growth and profitability will focus on tapping into the employer market. Bertolini says the market never took off because insurers were not focused on keeping costs down for employers or their workers. "What we're now going to do is put plan designs in and underwrite the group.
