[sustran] Re: Toyota forsees accident proof car

[Todd Edelman]

Jojo!

I and many, many others do not want this utopia!

The Toyota propagandist says no petrol stations are needed, then mentions
the huge hydrogen infrastructure which is needed.

There is no mention at all of how cars can be "accident-proof". If this
means than pedestrians can walk in front of them and not get hit then I
call for all pedestrians and cyclists, etc to plan to walk across streets,
more or less at will, yes, Jojo, like we used to before Toy-ota and its
friends came along.

And such fuel economy between London and Istanbul! With the predicted
increase in cars, what will happen if many of these are being driven to
Turkey? No negative effects at all?

I could go on and on but I wont. Again, what the propagandist from Toyota
spews out is no utopia of mine: I am realistic about the negative effects
of cars besides collisions and tailpipe emissions (social isolation,
enabling of obesity, huge about space needed which causes of farms and
forest, etc, tyres on tarmac noise, and so on....) I like using my legs,
and if Istanbul is too far to walk to I will take a train, which by the
way as been using regenerative braking for many years.
