" it's life, and life only"

posted Friday, 24 August 2007
I'm sure it's nothing to do with me, but almost exactly one month after I ranted about these killer machines on the streets of Liuzhou, the local newspaper announce a safety campaign. The headline roughly translates as “Electric Vehicles: Please steer to life!” While I applaud every effort to improve safety, there is only one way to make these things safe. Ban the stupid, dangerous things! Get them off the roads.



Of course, a safety campaign only means that the local authorities will stick up a couple of posters, pat themselves on the back and have a banquet to celebrate -  while everyone else carries on regardless.
