All diesel and petrol car sales to be banned

[SueEllen]

Can't see how this can ever work unless there's some amazing new advancement in batteries. Takes about a minute to fill a tank, at least half an hour to charge an electric car to 80% capacity with a fast charger, 6+ hours on a home charger. There's often 3 or more cars to a household. How can they possibly charge all the cars that are parked on the streets?

We won't be using cars.

We will be using people pods which we will summon.

You will have to share at busy times with someone going part of your route.

Might work if the vehicles are all driverless/automated.

But will we want to share with you...?

[SueEllen]

But will we want to share with you...?

Nope.

And I don't want to share with school children or babies.

[vetran]

Nope.

And I don't want to share with school children or babies.

Video appears to show Uber driver getting oral sex during ride - Story | WFLD

An Uber passenger says he experienced "the most dangerous and inappropriate ride ever" after his driver was allegedly receiving oral sex from a woman in the front seat.

And to make matters even worse, the passenger says Uber attempted to apologize by offering him a $10 credit.

The incident allegedly happened in Chicago on July 17 around 3 a.m.

I'll be eating through a straw by then, so I couldn't give a tulip...

No, they'll be have implanted some nano-technology in your gut. No straw required. But you won't be able to give a tulip.

Maybe all new electric cars will actually be like dodgems with a big **** off grid over the world:



I'm pretty sure no-one has really worked this one out properly. How many power stations need to be built and what type of fuel and how much is needed and so on. Green ****ers, just **** right off you bearded sandal wearing twats

I take it you are probably not in favour of this then?

Not sure why I think that just a gut feeling you know?

Diesel isn't flammable, without heat & pressure.

Who told you that? Deisel won't spon-com in normal conditions but when it does ignite it's a proper pig to put out.

This is a nother typical Government sound bite not in the least thought through. Again. They must be trying to hide something...

Bet it prompts all the car manufacturers to talk about leaving. Again.

He wouldn't have complained if said woman had "serviced" him as well...

In about 1898 my granddad was one of those lining the street to watch the first petrol car chug into Portsmouth, with a reg number something like A3.

I may just about last long enough to watch the last petrol car drive out of Portsmouth in 2040
