That's great!  No, I didn't know, and I've driven thousands of miles on it.
Now, if we could only get things like left lane bandits, people who leave
stalled cars on the freeway without flashers on, and other patently stupid
and unsafe acts fined in the US we'd have progress.  Never ceases to amaze
me.  Wonder what would happen if you had an electric car over their and it
pooped out?  Might have to amend and broaden the law.  Just thought of this
due to a recent trip to California where billboards for the new Electric
Vehicle are already out.
