........should I ask why the rats are being sexually gratified by car crashes?
The answer is "they weren't. The study had nothing to do with that."

Thanks for the link but I read halfway through and then realized that what I really wanted was more images (and video) of rats driving cars.
My sister used to have one with a hamster ball in the middle that actually moved
It's kinda cruel to keep your sister in a hamster ball.
But they did get fruit loop pieces with marshmallow used to "glue" them to the dispenser, so that's pretty cute. I mean it's a lot cuter to imagine than a bunch of horned up rats.
Yes.
The grant application practically writes itself.
OOP was possibly referring to the movie Crash, or the origin novel
Definitely one of those times where I go "Oh shit, I never did get around to watching that, did I?"
Thanks for helping out the terminally unaware.
No, you should ask how they measure it.
