iscadean3607 It's like the US, only worse.

@Eidolon1andOnly Also in California, the geography was responsible for trapping air pollution between mountain ranges and it would settle into the valleys. In the 1960's it became acute and so California had to do something about the particulates trapped in the air. But now the government in CA is bat ***t crazy out, plumbing the depths of stupidity in a way that has actually driven people and businesses out of a place that has an absolutely perfect climate, beauty abounding everywhere, and a wealth of natural resources. People deserve who they vote for though.

@Dratchev241 Diesel fuel has much more energy per gallon in it than gasoline, that's the primary reason they get better mileage.

@Acemeistre Well this is youtube, so you can't post links. It would have been less time to do a search. But I'm a generous soul, and I'll quote a badly titled article from Carhampt: Electric Cars and Kill Switches: Debunking Myths and Exploring Safety Measures In short, yes, electric cars do incorporate safety measures that can quickly halt their operations in emergency situations (a.k.a. a kill switch.) But they extol the virtues of a remote kill switch: The benefits of integrating a kill switch in electric cars are manifold, echoing a chorus of safety concerns and modern vehicular exigencies So there you go. Not only does your electric car have a remote kill switch, Carhampt believes it's for your own good.

@Goodnessandlove The basic concept of EV is still the same as Gustave Trouvé's tricycle built in 1881. Electric cars were abandoned in the early 20th century because they didn't have enough range, and gas cars had far more utility. They quickly went away.

Will keep building PETROL engines into 2030s! Oh at least. That's the signal that petrol-based cars will be preeminent into the 2050, assuming EVs find a better battery chemistry than lithium and are able to produce them at scale much more cheaply.
