[QUOTE="user 4386, post: 640673, member: 4386"] None of us are - buit we are all happy to drive on smooth road surfaces that have to be maintained, and to have extra lanes etc to relieve congestion. It has to be paid for and we are already paying with fuel excise (the main difference is that overall electric car "fuel" costs will be lower once other coast issues are resolved by technology and volume of sales. But I am still on hydrocarbons for now... I think many of us have moved from Arthur Clarkes stage one (pure fantasy- above) and are struggling with stage 2 of costs and practicality at present - just watch me adopt stage 3 when the time comes! What concerns me most is countries makin ot compulsory before they have thought out all the logistical problems fully - which I think is why Norway has decreed no more hydrocarbon cars while its state petroleum company is still pegging oil leases in the Arctic as the sea ice melts.
