1971 Buick Riviera Boat-tail

Buick selected the name Riviera, Italian for coastline, to evoke the allure and affluence of the French Riviera. The Riviera was radically redesigned for the 1971 model year with flowing and dramatic "boat-tail" styling. The only engine available for 1971 was from Buick's "bigger is better days," the 455 cu in (7.5 L) Buick V8. Also, produced right before smog control took the fun out of driving for a while.

Some of the post with spiders on human hands intrigue me. Seems sketchy to me, but I guess I would say I have a slight aversion towards spiders. My question is how safe is it and what are the chances of getting bit?

it depends on the species, but most spiders are generally non-aggressive towards humans, even the ones with infamously potent venom.

as long as your composure is calm and your movements are slow, a spider shouldn’t see you as a threat. and if they do, they’re more likely to run away.

however, you should always be knowledgable of the species you’re handling. while getting bitten is unlikely and anti-venom exists, it’s better to be safe than sorry.
