@DrTCombs That's just absurd, and the fact that the #NHTSA does not demand #CrashCoimpatibility with every kind of traffic participant is outrageous...
Werden die Tage kürzer, steigt die Gefahr von Wildunfällen. In der Dämmerung sollten Autofahrer besonders aufmerksam sein.
Viele Autofahrer unterschätzen die Gefahr und fahren trotz der Warnschilder oder blauer Reflektoren an den Leitpfählen zu schnell. Wie können sie sicher fahren und richtig reagieren?
If Cities Are Going To Be Packed With Parking Lots, They Should All Have Solar Canopies
Target recently ran a pilot project in California using roof and parking lot solar to power its entire store, including HVAC systems. The system actually produces about 10% more energy than the store can consume, meaning Target can then send the energy back to the grid and receive payment for its power from the local energy company.
Falls also wer nen silber/grauen #Mitsubishi [Eclipse Cross?] Mit Kennzeichen WI-T-****E in oder um #Leverkusen sieht, sagt' Bescheid und haltet Abstand!
It's purposefully designed to make #repair economically unviable!
This shit should be made illegal by @EU_Commission because not even ATEX-certified radios and diving computers have that level of designed-in #unrepairability, and they even have fecking valid reasons to not be easy to be opened.
After all, for most people a #car is just a tool to get themselves and/or maybe a person and/or maybe some freight from one point to another because #PublicTransport doesn't exist or is more expensive and/or inconvenient than driving...
@Hawkwinter So the Idea of the #PLV is to ne "neither car nor motorcycle nor bike" and just take the advantages and try to be a simpler solution to the "I want to get somewhere dry and safely regardless of weather without having to dress up for it, sweat a lot depemding on the route or having trouble finding a parking spot because parking spaces don't grow with the #fattening of #Cars into #SuperUselessVehicle|s...
"Das Auto hier braucht kein Benzin, also auch kein Erdöl. (...) Man kann Strom auch aus Wasserkraft oder der Sonnenenergie gewinnen. Und eines Tages, wenn wir weiter erfinden, dann kriegen wir vielleicht all diese Benzin-Stinker von den Straßen."
Denn als #Aktiengesellschaft sind diese zur #Profitmaximierung mit allen legalen Mitteln verpflichtet und würden sonst extrem teure Schadensersatzklagen riskieren...
Also ich fahre ja generell nicht oft Auto und habe auch keines, daher hatte ich erst gestern meine erste Begegnung mit einem #Elektroauto / #BEV - und jetzt frage ich mich wirklich, wer nach einer Fahrt mit so was jemals wieder zurück will zum träge-unelastischen #Verbrennstinklärmer?
I've been saying this for years, but I keep seeing accusations that it's entirely the fault of automakers that we have giant trucks and SUVs on the road because they're more profitable.
STOP. BLAMING. ONLY. THE AUTOMAKERS.
BLAME THE EPA TOO.
Small cars and trucks STILL have market demand, but the EPA's CAFE standards perversely incentivizes automakers to produce bigger and bigger trucks and SUVs instead.
Also #fuel in the #USA is way too #cheap compared to the #EU & #Japan, where the same price in €¢ & ¥ is being paid per liter (!!) as in $¢ per gallon (!!!) in the USA.
