We are now victims of these non cars.
Yesterday during a day out at the coast we decided to stop for lunch, we found a likely looking hotel restaurant oposite the beach with a fantastic view of the bay.
We pulled into the carpark behind the hotel, took a minute or two to take in the view and went to the restaurant.
When we came out the acces road to the carpark was blocked by a big shiny Audi, it was slap bang in the middle of the road with no chance of anything passing.
It was electric and had broken down. 3 hours later a recovery wagon arrived.

19th September 2023 at 1:49 pm #591531a colleague of mine from the USA tells me they are seeing a lot of problems this year with battery powered robot mowers catching fire, which is a concern in those areas prone to wild fires, especially as in the USA a lot of manufacturers are rapidly pulling out of the petrol powered mower market (Honda, Husqvarna, Briggs & Stratton to name a few)
Edit
it is not just the US market Honda (and others) are quitting production totally worldwide
It seems that Slippery Sunak is backing down on the requirement for us to all have these cars, now that the manufacturers are no longer geared up to make diesel and petrol vehicles. He really does take us as idiots. Before we get the usual, Starmer wants to let Brussels decide how many immigrants the UK takes each year.

The politicians of all parties, especially the leaders, are desperate to come up with something that will strike a chord with the public with an election on the horizon. I think they have ignored the will of the people for so long now, none of them have a clue what the people really want. Let’s face it the only time politicians listen to the electorate is when they want their votes.
28th September 2023 at 2:09 pm #591898And Now millions of Hyundai and Kia drivers in the USA are being advised to park their vehicles outside because of the risk of fires
Just read that motorway stations are hiring Marshall’s to control the charging of electric cars…as there have been cases of road rage and people fighting over the charging places….fed up with the long waits.
so let’s all rush out and buy electric cars so we can join in the fun.

4th October 2023 at 11:02 am #592103Odd how the mainstream media dont mention the details of it being electric and catching fire is this another case of selective reporting especially any downside of electric vehicles
RIP all those that lost thier lives
It turns out the bus was powered by methane not electricity – yet another hazard brought to you by the caring, sharing eco-mentalists.
