Epic trip for 'alternative' car


I think the UK Government should pass a law to make this technology
compulsory for all company cars.


BMW and DaimlerChrysler are already working on Hydrogen and Fuel Cell
power as a viable alternative to existing technologies. BMW have

suggested
that they expect to be able to offer such engines within 5-8 years.

It's
currently looking like the best alternative to petrol/diesel engines but
it wouldn't be feasible to make it compulsory just yet.
JOOI, why only for company cars?


I want to punish company car drivers!


"Punish" them for what, exactly?

Having a job?
