Since new diesels have gained cats or particualte filters or whatever... they are really choking me. I am a keen cyclist - but also have asthma. When some peenarse in a new diesel something or other company car nails it past me, it smells like chlorine or some acrid acidic gas is coming out... It really screws up your lungs...
The old smoky diesels have no effect - - as if the carbon is retaining this rather noxious gas....

any ideas what is ruining my rides ???

When I exit my work at night, the doors can tell when my car pulls up. Is it weight sensors in the ground, a laser or something more advanced?

Forgive me for a lack of technical terms here, as I know little about cars...
The vehicle is leaking power steering fluid from a rubber (I think) tube the runs behind/near the front tire on the driver's side.
Now, if I look under there, I can see a crack in the tube from which the fluids are leaking.
The thing is, it's had trouble before and a mechanic gave a $400 estimate to have the whole thing replaced, but I can't afford that...
Are there any other ways to fix it cheaply, without replacing the whole thing?
I tried electrical tape, but with the freezing winter weather and the greasy tube, the tape just won't stick...
What should I do? I barely get by on my meager paycheck as is and can't afford to have it fixed...

so how dumb is this person??
from Yahoo.co.uk

"A woman will not face prosecution after her satellite navigation system told her to drive onto a railway line.

The 52-year-old, from Dorking, Surrey, was waiting at a level crossing at Norman's Bay, near Eastbourne, East Sussex, on January 16 when the device told her to turn left.

She drove her silver Ford Fiesta onto the track at 7.30pm, blocking train services between Brighton and Hastings, a BTP spokeswoman said.

The unnamed woman was investigated for obstructing the railway and driving without due care, but police decided that pursuing a case against her would not be in the public interest.

PC Christine Holyoake said: "We have looked into the matter, and have come to the conclusion that the woman had made a bad but honest mistake.

"A prosecution is not in the public interest and the matter is now closed.""

Hybrid cars are better on gas. Just keep the body styles that we like but outfit the cars with hybrid engines. Continuing to make normal, poor mileage cars is like continuing to make VHS movies in the age of DVD players.

The Web Site
http://www.dhmo.org/facts.html
Says that Dihydrogen Monoxide Is toxic and can kill humans. But this site
http://www.museumofhoaxes.com/hoax/weblog/dihydrogen_monoxide/hoax.ico
says Dihydrogen Monoxide is just another name for water.
My concern is Dihydrogen Monoxide is the main byproduct that is produced as a result of using hydrogen to power cars, which many car companies are planning on doing! If a car driver breathed in Dihydrogen Monoxide, woulden't they die?

How do car rental places know that you have gone out of state? They always charge some extra fee if you leave the state. How do they know that you are not just traveling around a large state like Texas?

I was checking out the QarmaQ concept car and thought to myself that it was the coolest car I ever saw. Then again I've said that about many concept cars. The thing is these cars never make it to production. Instead its the same old crappy boring designs. Is it because the concept cars don't even work? If so why even show them off. Why would I be impressed with a company that makes a nice looking car that doesn't even function? Or maybe its obscenly expensive to make?

An acquaintance of mine allows her partner to drive her around even though he doesn't have a full licence, I'm not sure he even has a provisional. Is she committing an offense, and would she get 'done' instead of him for any offence he commits ie speeding?
