There is that pesky embrittlement problem to overcome.

Will probably create a grey market for “used cars” from outside“

The rat states will refuse to register ICE cars.
So no buying new or used cars from out of state.

The car makers will not make cars they can only sell in half of the states.
So no new ICE cars will be made.

The only hope to stop this BS is the 24 election. Last chance.

A friend who works in a biomedical lab specifically studying crashes and the impact on human beings claims you never want to ride in a self driving vehicle.

I propose a ban on democrats, globalists, and climate cults.

I figure 99% of America’s problems would be solved by this.

You might enjoy this video about a guy who build hydrogen powered muscle cars as a way to prove concept can be reality.

Ideologues are a menace to society. They possess no common world experience, yet somehow they are listened to by governments. It’s the blind leading the blind, but as is evident in the article, the public doesn’t want any part of the lunacy. I’m waiting to see what Trump says about it in his coming appearance before the car manufacturers and the unions.

Bingo. As they jet around the planet, feeling ever-so superior. Not only are they idiots, they’re a—holes.

Who says they can’t be some day?

*A friend who works in a biomedical lab specifically studying crashes and the impact on human beings claims you never want to ride in a self driving vehicle.*
I would imagine a driver has a split second to prepare for the impact. Driverless cars less so.

59% of Americans oppose a ban on cars while only 40% support it.

40% of Americans support banning cars? I guess Liberty and Freedom are outdated concepts.

But even if 85% supported it, since we are not a democracy it shouldn’t matter. The Constitution doesn’t give government such authority.

What about the infrastructure needed to support hydrogen being transported and stored?

So you’re saying there’s a device which can generate hydrogen from “something” that is small enough to fit in a car?

What’s the source for the hydrogen?

“ The rat states will refuse to register ICE cars. So no buying new or used cars from out of state.”

I’m sure the idiot libs would try that. People moving in would have to buy EVs because they couldn’t bring their ICE vehicles. Kiss off anyone moving into those crapholes.

I think what you already own would be grandfathered because they “want to be fair” but they won’t let you register any new purchases be it a new or used car.
