Uber Eats driver loses livelihood when thieves steal his car, then use it to smash into a Newbury Street store

Actually, the guy said(on tv) he left the keys in the car and it was running. I am not jumping into the trap you set, but i don't understand people that do this.

I've never worked a delivery job. Have you?

Yes. If the victim is partly to blame, then the victim deserves part of the blame.

Burning calories isn't a very effective way of keeping weight off. You'd need to do a *huge* amount of cardio to do that!

Much more effective is just reducing the amount you eat, and watching *what* you eat. (And when. Time-restricted eating is extremely effective.)

I'm sure biking is great for cardio health, but I'd be pretty skeptical that it helps with weight loss.

Bike nut here.

I don't know the answers to your "questions," but I will say as a bike person that I don't subscribe to your food moralizing or fatphobia.

“ PUBLIC WAY
Page 2 2009 Edition
II. FULL INSTRUCTION
The Commonwealth must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant operated a motor vehicle in one of three places: on a public way, or in a place to which the public has a right of access, or in a place to which members of the public have access as invitees or licensees.
You will note that the statute treats these three types of places as alternatives. If any one of the alternatives is proved, then this element of the offense is satisfied. Let me discuss the three alternatives one at a time.
Our law defines a public “way” as: “any public highway,
[or a] private way [that is] laid out under authority of [a] statute,
[or a] way dedicated to public use,
or [a] way [that is] under [the] control
of park commissioners or [a] body having [similar] powers.”
G.L. c. 90, § 1.
Interstate and state highways, as well as municipal streets and roads, would all be included in this definition. In determining whether a road is a

public way, you may consider whether it has some of the usual indications of a public way — for example, whether it is paved, whether it has street lights, street signs, traffic signals, curbing and fire hydrants, whether there are abutting houses or businesses, whether it has any crossroads intersecting it, whether it is publicly maintained, and whether there is an absence of signs prohibiting public access.
Commonwealth v. Charland, 338 Mass. 742, 744, 157 N.E.2d 538, 539 (1959) (signs, signals, curbing, crossroads); Commonwealth v. Mara, 257 Mass. 198, 208-210, 153 N.E. 793, 795 (1926) (street lights, paving, curbing, houses, crossroads, traffic); Danforth v. Durell, 8 Allen 242, 244 (1864) (paved roads, no sign that anyone excluded); Commonwealth v. Muise, 28 Mass. App. Ct. 964, 551 N.E.2d 1224 (1990) (usual indicia of public way include paved roads, absence of signs prohibiting access, street lights, curbing, abutting houses or businesses, crossroads, traffic, signs, signals, lighting and hydrants; unnamed, paved private way into trailer park with abutting residential trailers, and no signs prohibiting access, was public way); Commonwealth v. Colby, 23 Mass. App. Ct. 1008, 1010, 505 N.E.2d 218, 219-220 (1987) (paved road, lighting, hydrants); Commonwealth v. Hazelton, 11 Mass. App. Ct. 899, 900, 413 N.E.2d 1144, 1145 (1980) (regularly patrolled by police, “no parking” signs, municipally paved and plowed; photo of way admissible).
The second alternative under the statute is a place that is not a “way,” but where the general public still has a right of access by motor vehicle. This might include, for example, a parking lot that is adjacent to city hall, or the parking area of a public park.
The third alternative is a place to which members of the public have access as invitees or licensees. The difference between invitees and licensees is not important here. Both are persons who are lawfully in a

place at the invitation of the owner, or at least with the owner’s tolerance. Some examples of locations where the public has access as invitees or licensees include shopping centers, roadside fuel stops, parking lots, and restaurant parking lots.”

According to this, restaurant parking lots do fall under the law.
