Perhaps the general public feels the same way.
zero-emissions is a fantasy
“the car’s back seat is too small for more than one passenger, with the front too cramped for the officers. The chiefs further cite “autopilot interference” when trying to pull off the road; they also say a reliance on unsecured charging stations makes officers vulnerable when it comes to transporting suspects long distances and note that in a firefight, police are taught to hide behind a car’s engine block. With EVs, that’s not an option.”
I’m wondering what’s gonna happen when large caliber rounds hit that battery.
Cops driving coal-powered cars in CA is hypocrisy at its finest.
Isn’t this fun? Earth! The Universe’s Largest Sitcom.
Calling EV’s “climate friendly” is like calling Haitians “cat friendly”.
— turns out the Teslas pose a lot of other challenges, per SFGate interviews with three Northern California police chiefs.
Once upon a time in America common people could figure out all of these problems at the scratch pad stage. Once. Apparently no more.
“Though climate friendly...”writes this author.
No! These cars are not climate friendly. Just because they are touted as being so by the fake media does not make it so. This false concept needs to stop being promoted.or the sheeple keep repeating this deception and that is how the masses turn more ignorant.
Though I cant feel too sorry for them. They're staying in California - presumably to suck up fat pensions at the expense of working taxpayer while in the meantime doing little about the tsunami of immigrant and native crime that's one factor killing the economy there
The dirty secret is what it takes to manufacture and dispose of the batteries.
As I understand it, environmentally friendly it ain’t
Just wait until Ca starts their “rolling black outs”
And the PD can’t charge their cars.
The PD may never black out.
But charging outside of the PD may not be an option.
The worst part is that 90% of the Cobalt comes from the Congo.
The Chinese own all the open pit mines.
The people living in the villages around the mines dig the cobalt out of the ground by hand. Their children are born with a high percentage of birth defects.
However, the children working in the mines are provided the best $.99 flip flops money can buy.
You’re absolutely right.
bttt
Quite a come down from CHIPS.
One round in to the battery and the thermal runaway will remove their protection all together.
I wonder how many of these people would be shocked to discover that the meat they eat comes from killing animals?
