Would you vote for a law to limit fast lanes on freeways to fast moving traffic during business hours?
Kurious questioned:
If such a law were projected, according to the following criteria, would you vote for it?

WHY?: Trucks slow all down, and yield endless conveying pile ups everytime they jump over into the left lane.
2. The only vehicles genteel to enter a affect lane, Monday owing to Friday from the hours of 6AM and 9AM, and 3PM owing to 6PM, are motorcycles, hybrid vehicles, and any additional vehicle with no more than four wheels and at smallest amount two citizens impression U.S. drivers licenses on board.
WHY? Soccer moms and Pregnant Women aren’t just so what the affect lane was projected for. The lane was projected to reduce work conveying by cheering ride sharing. A protect or limb of the clergy carries their outcome by convenience and do not aid in sinking conveying on the freeways. If two adults are on board all owing to those hours, here is a privileged probability that ride sharing is compelling place. Also, by allowing singles in the lane in motorcycles and hybrid vehicles, they are incentified to hold these vehicles which also help to reduce carbon emmisions.

That hybrid cars must be agreed perks from the
regime, such as: tax breaks, free parking, and life able to use the
carpool lane when carrying a release passenger
THE QUESTIONS ARE”
1. What benefits do hybrid vehicles offer to society? Why is fuel efficiency
vital? How does it benefit the consumer? Society? Be sure to cite
references and data in your answers.
2. Why do some question the efficiency of hybrid vehicles? How, or in what
circumstances, may maybe hybrids really do more hurt to the background than
additional vehicles?
3. What happened to the HOV lanes in Virginia in the DC area with hybrids were

Questions for Hybrid Owners: How much money do you actually save?
G questioned:
My 1996 Toyota Camry has been very excellent to me over the being, but I have the feeling she’s being paid a modest exhausted and force be inane to Camry Heaven in a year or two, so I stanch to start reduction for down payment on a new car. I work in phoenix, which is one of the smallest amount public-transportation friendly cities ever, and I live outside the city, about 20 miles away from my job. With gas prices how they are I waste about $50/week on gas. This, collective with the obvious excellent-deed for the background, is making me reflect about maybe reduction a modest superfluous for a Hybrid. What I’m wondering is does it really save you that much cash on gas? I mean, you only use the battery when you’re inane below 25 miles/hour? I travel below 25 miles an hour when I’m pulling out of my driveway and that’s about it. I guess when I’m blocked in conveying but how much gas does that really use? I’m just wondering for the small-not suv-hybrid owners, how much difference do you see in your gas expenses in view of the fact that being paid it?

Why do people think hybrids are good for the environment?
Merlin M questioned:
The total hype about hybrids seems a waste of time, in view of the fact that the cars themselves are too. What public fail to realize is that hybrids are dreadful for the background. While they may take in less fuel than a fixed car, the administer of making a hybrid is really damaging to the background.
In order to make a hybrid, car companies need to mine for the assets they are inane to need to make the batteries, let lonely the new plastics and lightweight alloys required to make the battery housings, and the rest of the gripping potential sow. The wits this is a problem is that completely new mines are dug in order to obtain the raw equipment looked-for to make the batteries. Then these raw equipment are shipped all around the planet. to be refined and re-refined, and eventually twisted into batteries, which are then place into the cars, which themselves are then shipped to dealerships.
The refineries aren’t owned by the car makers themselves, in view of the fact that the cost of building their own refineries would be to splendid, the car makers ship their equipment all around the planet, to third have fun companies so that they can do the refining. It is in fact cheaper for the car makers to do pay for shipping, very than scare with building their own refineries, and having the raw equipment be twisted into the batteries all in one place.
The raw equipment, and the equipment in innumerable stages of refinement, are shipped all around the planet using huge ships and goods rains, all of which run on diesel. While diesel is more efficient than gasoline, it subdue puts emissions into the ambiance. The productivity of these earnings of shipping (trains/ships) isn’t balanced out by the hybrids that they helped to make.
So ,what I was wondering was, why the hell do public blindly swallow the crap that is fed to them about hybrids, and never question it? I also bring this up in view of the fact that here are a lot of tiny, fuel efficient cars sold by foremost car makers all around the planet, yet here has been less of an incentive to bring them here, in view of the fact that public don’t get tax breaks for driving small cars, but they do if they handbook a hybrid.
I just want to know what others reflect on this come forth, and delight, if you’re a hybrid fan/lover/driver, don’t scare answering, telltale me how awe-inspiring you reflect hybrids are.
also, once the batteries are worn out, they need to be replaced, which only furthers the need for mining, and in case i hadn’t mentioned it, mining is in the end putting holes in the Earth
Which major automaker will be the first to conceive and then build a car that could save the planet?
yosarian questioned:
It may maybe be built right now:
Its form and body would be made of carbon-fibre (5 era lighter and stronger than steel; therefore also safer) its engine would be a flex-fuel (gasoline/ethanol) hybrid with plug-in (household give a new lease of life) capability and a much better battery than any hybrids have now and it would incorporate solar cells across its horizontal surfaces to allocate battery-recharging when/where on earth it was parked in the sun.
Such a car would allocate commuters to take in over 100-miles, round-trip, each day on its batteries lonely, generating absolutely no greenhouse gasses in the administer, thus reduction the planet once all had one.
All we’d need to inspire the American public to buy them en masse is: 1) For the Iranians to make excellent on their risk to shut-off the oil spigot when we hit them, 2) For oil prices to get to $100/barrel for several months as a upshot, and 3) For the US regime to strongly-incentivize the curriculum.
My guess? A Japanese or Chinese firm.

Would you mind driving a small 3 wheeled vehicle in the city?
Jesse questioned:
I’m an industrial top apprentice, and I’m crafty an Inner-city vehicle. The current thought is to make a very small two seater car, that’s low to the ground, with two wheels in the adjoin, and one in the back. The top of this vehicle is to be very quick, interval efficient, and fuel efficient. A car to nearly exclusively handbook in the city. The engine would be similar to a dirt bike engine, maybe hybrid gripping.
So the questions are:
What do you want in an Inner-city vehicle? and,
Does this thought signal excellent to you?
What is the true meaning of carpooling?
George S questioned:
When the goverment complex set of laws for carpooling, what is the right importance of carpooling? Is it to save gas by cheering public to ride collectively?
If that’s the case, then why do we allocate public with small children to ride in the carpool lane? I mean, I’m pleased that it is allowed in view of the fact that I have a modest one but to be honest, how is that reduction gas? It’s not like small children and kids below driving age can handbook on their own and thus manslaughter gas. Take this additional, must children and kids ride in lecture buses if they are inane to lecture to help make the most of gas conservation?
I be with you motorcycles can ride in the carpool lane in view of the fact that their engine can singe and thus have to try and keep it tender and plus, they do store up gas over the use of a car. I also do reflect it’s fine to ride in the carpool lane if your vehicle can give you XX mpg such as a Prius or Civic Hybrid as that IS cheering gas conservation.
I have to argue Mexkimo. If you say all public watch and it’s not about the gas but about the wear an tear and not about cheering each drivable self to carpool, the road subdue wears out in the same amount of time with or without children. My take is that it’s held to reduce the amount of gas consumption or reduce the amount of cars in the road. By allowing children and non-driveable public to ride in the carpool lane, sorta defeats the function of having a carpool lane.
