Marika Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 http://www.theaircar.com/ Runs on compressed air http://news.bbc.co.uk/player/nol/newsid_71...s=1&bbcws=1 Video feed from the BBC about the car. If you really want to make people safe drivers again then simply remove all the safety features from cars. No more seat belts, ABS brakes, traction control, air bags or stability control. No more anything. You'll see how quickly people will slow down and once again learn to drive like "normal" humans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenJ Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Interesting, but silly. Then again, my boss seems to run on hot air. How silly is that?

The alternative is only whether the crisis should come sooner as the result of a voluntary abandonment of further credit expansion, or later as a final and total catastrophe of the currency system involved. - Ludwig von Mises Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Nunnally Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Use of compressed air is just another type of battery if you think about it -- another way to easily and quickly store potential to do work. The main draw back of conventional batteries is that they do not instantly recharge.

WarrenJ Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 This technology has been used in buses. So far, it hasn't proven adaptable to individual autos. There are silly reasons for that.
