Most out here do not know that a major portion of the local T (Metro Subway System) is closed for repairs and that dozens of bus routes have been significantly reduced or eliminated because they cannot get the Drivers needed.

morons.

intelligent people would let another state try it for 5-10 yrs before pushing it on their people.

MA gets to -10F easily and blizzard stranding cars on 128 isn’t unusual.

how are those cars getting out of there? towed?
by electric tow trucks? LOL.
driving on roads plowed by electric plows? ROFLMAO

Spent almost my whole life here and am saddened by the thought processes of a great many of my fellow Bay Staters. I have reveries of creating forests, much in the same way as Vlad Tepes. That would please me.....

i remember that one.

there was another about 10 yrs later that had 128 littered with disabled cars (i left work late and made it home, weaving thru them all from wakefield to concord)

unless they change how batteries respond to the cold and how to bring power to the cars instead of the cars to the power... it won’t work.

if they ban gas powered cars, there won’t be enough gas stations left for gas powered anything else.

electric snowblowers?
electric snow mobiles?

LOL

I should have made my /sarcasm s a Captial /S for very serious sarcasm.
15 years sho, I had a collegue in the Financial District ask me why I drove to work from the suburbs rather than take the MBTA. I looked at her like a deer in headlights and walked away. That was when it actually passed for mediocre transportation.

What will be the reaction when they figure out that this change to EVs will not have had any effect on climate change? However, it WILL effect many other changes.

That Toyota Landcruiser on the left side of the picture would have easily gone through that snow if the other cars were out of the road.
That’s the best 4WD vehicle ever made.
One like that today is in the $35k range or more.

CA and MA want everyone to switch to coal and natural gas powered electric vehicles. Make sense? Why?

What kind of horsepower do those heaps generate? What kind of brake shoes do they use?

It’s Bill H.5060.

Good luck trying to read it.

Every link I’ve tried to open at a MA government website won’t open.

Speaking of snow, a preview of coming attractions from across The Pond...

'You pay for electricity then throw it away!' GB News viewer points out flaw in EVs A FURIOUS driver has slammed an electric car for losing five percent of charge when parked outside in cold weather not being used.

Except that, for Deep States, that's not a bug, it's a feature.

Nowhere do Deep States want you driving.
