Vehicles that make frequent stops (like school buses) are the sweet spot for battery-electric power. Regenerative braking recovers energy and makes the friction brakes last far longer.
It’s also safer and cleaner for everyone, especially kids.
Kudos to the Biden administration for investing in cleaner, greener school buses.
I do not understand people who have sick days, work for a place that encourages use of sick days, and refuse to use a sick day when they're very clearly sick.
@Adam_Cadmon1 It is more expensive as many have mentioned but there is reason for that. In order to install lines underground one needs to consider the heat generated by those lines. There should be sufficient circulation and protection for underground lines (not typically a large city concern). Also, it is easier for the company to fix hanging lines than underground ones in rural areas.
It’s far more common for data lines to be run underground.
