Ian C Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Don't get something for nothing - go over enough of these and your mileage will suffer. Can you claim that back, I ask? -Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supragal Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Surely that adda major wear and tear on a car?? If they were flat then ok but it looks like it would be similar to going over a level crossing!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roboldham Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 yar, they squish with the first set of wheels then use some gearing jiggery pokery to turn a clutch-like thing to generate electricity as you traverse. I suppose it would be like a squishy level crossing. basically, by purhasing fuel you will be funding the running of whatever is powered by the device - but heavy Supras with rockhard Teins or whatever suspension will be far more efficient - see how considerate we are?

Ian C Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 What happens when they break and one side stays down, leaving a huge vertical step in the road? -Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DamanC Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Surely the drivers are paying for this.......with the extra fuel used to get over the bump. Hopefully they will be easy to break Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
