It's one of those plans that feels like a band-aid. Like, we'll blow $19bn on a system that tech progression will probably eclipse and solve in the same timeframe. If it isn't feasible for large scale vehicles in the next 10 or so years just don't do it and look to make the green savings elsewhere.

Whether it's a good system for the road is a different matter (and I'm not fully convinced) - but from an engineering viewpoint, it's perfectly feasible.
An alternative to fossil fueled trucks will need to be found tho. What we need is a country wide maglev monorailLast edited by MartyG; 28-07-2021, 10:16.

I haven't been keeping up with the science as much as I should so what's actually happening there might well render this thought entirely redundant but, with the amount infected (and even deaths, although I'm guessing many or most of those must be in risk categories) who have been doubled vaxxed, it feels like we should be erring on the side of caution here.

I've already resolved the issue of electric vehicles.

As drivers jostle to get into the charging lane, there's a risk of collision, so maybe introduce a encircling large rubber bumper on the cars.

Our latest snapshot of key economic indicators finds shortages of goods and staff leading to slower growth
Boris, Sunak and Javid's economy first restriction abandonment plan already backfires as the UK's economic recovery has stalled - turns out letting the virus run rampant and causing a wave of sickness and isolations isn't so hot for business.

With cases showing signs of increase the efforts to work out the reason for their fall continues and the current suspected list appears to be:
-Cases continuously increased but events like the Euro matches caused a mass surge that settled back down afterward
-COVID testing has also fallen by 20% leading to a decline in detected cases
It's cited that there is evidence infected cases are avoiding going to be tested in order to avoid detection. It was also highlighted as to how much recent developments have slaughtered vaccination rated within the UK with them being called out as being 'woeful'. It's mentioned that there are many cancelled appointments with numerous people either believing the moronic conspiracy theories or buying the Government's new tact that COVID is no longer an issue.
