If they haven't designed the system so it can run on generator alone with
a
flat battery then shame on them.


If the brief was "in stop-start traffic in London", then engineering it
for an extended flat-out run on a motorway might not be appropriate.


Wouldn't it have been easier to string a couple of wires up above the bus
routes and dispense with carrying a generator and batteries around on the
bus?
