Left Hand Cars That Drive Themselves: Cars That Drive Himself


About 100,000 people die in car(including left hand cars drive) accidents each year. Can we have cars that will sense an impending accident and come to screeching halt before the impact occurs? Well, you will be pleased to learn that one such car, VOLVO S 60, will be launched next month, and other manufacturers are likely to follow. the car is equipped with camera and radar devices that monitor approaching objects and laser systems that accurately determine distances and transmit these to on-board computers. When all cars on roads are equipped in this manner, we will enter in a new era that will be free of road accidents.
In Japan a new smart highway system has already been developed that alerts drivers if they get too near a car in front of them, if there are vehicles converging on to road from a side road, or if the road in front is congested. Known as "Smart way" the system is expected to dramatically reduce road accidents.
Left Hand Car Drive and the right Hand Car Drive will both have equal chance to be accident. But now different projects is under considerations to reduce such dreadful events. The most exciting of such projects under development is aimed to make the car drivers redundant, at least for most of the journey! Known as SARTRE (Safe Road Trains For The Environment), the system is being developed by seven car manufacturers and some European universities. Cars will travel at high speeds in a convoy of eight cars, only one meter apart, with a lead car controlling the convoy's movements by an on-board computer. This will allow drivers to read,sleep or play games as long as their car is within such a convoy. the drivers will be able to resume control when they wish to exit the highway. Cars joining the highway will be able to book their place within one of many such convoys traveling on the highway. It is expected that fuel consumption and emissions will also be cut by 40 per cent by this system

New Ways Of Reducing Petrol Fuel Consumption


A number of new and innovative methods are being developed to reduce petrol fuel consumption in vehicles. When you are traveling over a bump road, the shock absorbers in your car absorbs the bumps. While this makes for a smoother ride, this energy is wasted. A US company(Levant Power Of Boston)has developed a system to convert it into electricity and used that for recharging the battery and use it for other purposes, results in petrol fuel savings of up to five per cent.
Another company, E-Traction in the Netherlands, has fitted motor on the two rear wheels of trucks, eliminating the heavy transmission and gearing that soaks up power, the result is an amazing 40 per cent decrease in fuel consumption.
Another technique being used is to fit rounded flairs or fins at the back of trucks that result in six per cent decrease in fuel consumption due to improved aerodynamics. Wasted engine heat has also been recycled to electricity by a number of companies in the UK and USA, resulting in significant fuel savings.

World's Longest Sea Bridge


The world’s longest sea bridge is the Hangzhou Bay Bridge, which was opened for public use in 2008. This fantastic bridge is a stayed cable bridge that offers an S shape and 6 lanes that go in both directions. The bridge connects Cixi county to Jiaxing, and is a total of 22 miles or 36 kilometers in length.

The distance between Shanghai and Ningbo is shortened by taking this route by almost 120 km. The bridge is believed to have a lifespan of about 100 years and cost over $1.7 billion to build, or 11.8 billion Yuan. There is a toll fee to cross the Hangzhou Bay Bridge, which is 80 Yuan for each vehicle, and the speed limit is 62 miles per hour or 100 km per hour.

When preparing for the construction of the bridge, almost 600 experts went to work on the design. The chief commander of the bridge project stated that the bridge was to be linked in 2007, but a year later after many tests the bridge was then opened due to safety issues. The Hangzhou Bay Bridge has only a portion that is cable stayed which is from the Hangzhou Bay into the eastern portions of China. This bridge is considered the longest to cover an ocean, but is not the longest cable stayed main span bridge; this title goes to the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway in the United States because it is almost 3 km longer.

The travel time between Ningbo and Shanghai was shortened by an hour and a half by using the bridge, and took off 120 km or 75 miles from the trip. In the center of the bridge, construction is in talks for a service center that will cover 10,000 square meters. This area will have a restaurant, rest area, gas station, conference area and a hotel with a lookout tower for tourists. This service center is believed to be in the works to be built on a small island and platform on top of piers in the Bay. On either side of the bridge, public parks are also in talks but there are no immediate plans.

Why do people smoke

The cigarette is the most common method of smo...Image via Wikipediashould laws restrict where people can smoke? Why do people smoke?
Laws certainly should dictate where people ca smoke.in fact, I support laws that allows smoking only in one's own home or private office.For one thing, Scientific research clearly proves that smoking not only harms the health of smokers, It also harms the health of nonsmokers around them.Wives and children's of smokers, For example, Have been found to have more instances of lung cancer, Ear and throat infections, And asthma then wives and children's of nonsmokers.For another thing, Nonsmokers must in short pay for the consequences of smoking, Such as fires and increased costs of ventilation. Perhaps, We cannot depend on smokers to be considerate and respectful of health and pocketbooks of those around them. In my opinion, For the good of all Society, We need laws to tell smokers when and where to smoke.
It is good for the nonsmokers because if a person is smoking before a nonsmokers it is also very dangerous for the nonsmokers because he is inhaling all the smoke, But if we bound the smokers to smoke only in a smoking room then it will be good for the nonsmokers.It is also good for the smokers because they can fulfill their habit without any hesitation.

saegull stealing in scotland


The seagull waits until the shopkeeper isn't looking, and then walks into the store and grabs a snack-size bag of cheese Doritos.

Once outside, the bag gets ripped open and shared by other birds.

The seagull's shoplifting started early this month when he first swooped into the store in Aberdeen, Scotland, and helped himself to a bag of chips. Since then, he's become a regular. He always takes the same type of chips.

Customers have begun paying for the seagull's stolen bags of chips because they think it's so funny
