Does this mean that all buses will have to turn their engine off at every bus stop ?

I can see why this law is difficult to enforce, that's most probably why they want to handover the responsibility to the general public, get us all to do the leg work for them.
The enforcers can then sit and wait for the video uploads to come rolling in, then dish-out the fines via the registration plates being filmed. Brilliant idea really... |

No, not really. If you lived by a school, and even now before it gets colder, motorists sit waiting for their children for half an hour before they exit the school, when the wind is blowing the fumes into your house. Ignorant, thoughtless people.

Ref another post earlier about mpg, and starter wear, whilst starter wear is going to be an obvious issue, a more immediate issue will be battery wear, especially sitting in traffic with the lights, and other electrical items on.

Particularly aimed outside school gates where the children are breathing in the toxic air, the next importance would be taxi ranks, shops as you say.

But that is an argument and problem to solve by cutting wiring looms for another discussion.

I'm sure at some point most if not all of us have left an engine idling sometimes deliberate and sometimes by accident. I'd prefer to see education used first, someone walking along the line of cars perhaps handing out a leaflet, a word in the drivers ear, media broadcasts. Is an engine considered to be idling when stationary in a traffic jam? macafee2 |
