Thread 28687072

Lower demand leads to lower prices, unless of course you rely on economy of scale and a few single central facilities that can't operate below a certain volume.

Fuel should cost more to incentivize the people who hate driving anyway to waste less of it commuting (or at least to pick something more efficient to do it in), to save it for the people who actually enjoy driving.

Good job retarded Californians.

>>28687105
Cars are very expensive purchases. It's not always so simple as "choose something more efficient".

>>28687105
Nah, toll roads are the way to go. Major npc commuter routes can be rolled, but then spirited enthusiast roads can be free.

>>28687200
Enjoy consuming your goilslop.

>>28687215
If you can't afford this, you shouldn't be driving anyway

If desk jobs can just WFH, but nooo, the managers need to watch you work.

As I've posted before. Oil refineries make a hell of a lot more than automotive gasoline.
What's happening is an increase in "natural gas" use which also has to be extracted (it's what fracking is for) and refined and is arguably just as bad for the environment.
But whatever, pull the blinders over your eyes.

>>28687255
Natural gas doesn't go through oil refineries dumb dumb.

>>28687502
No shit. In no way did I imply that.
Nat gas goes through "processing plants" picrel.

California uses 20% less today than its peak in 2000. https://www.eia.gov/dnav/ng/hist/na1490_sca_2a.htm

Just track every journey, and tax per mile.
That will tie in well with tracking drivers speed, heavy braking, and bad driving too, and fines can automatically be issued.
Bans can be made for repeat offenders, who ruin it for all of us

>>28687539
go back to whatever shit hole country you came from and stay there.

>>28687544
Driving is a privilege, not a right.

>>28687241
Not really a failure at least in CA, every other car is either an ev or Tesla.

>>28687544
Guessing you are one of the minority of bad drivers who can't be trusted to drive properly.
Our community needs to self police people like you, so our little hobby can continue.
If you want to pretend you are a race driver, go to a track day.
If you can't afford that, you cant afford our little hobby.

>he thinks EVs run off gassoline
Behold that master race .

>>28687565
you had me there with that first post. should have kept it going.

>>28687571
Cope EV troon your experiment failed

>>28687577
Like it or not, that's the future of driving.
GPS governed speed limiters, onboard tracking and trip recording.
Straighten up and fly right, and this can be a lesson to you.

>>28687584
what about muh freedoms?

someone's /o/ bot is broken. trying to reply with an image but whoever wrote it is not good at coding.

>>28687598
You can thank noisefags, emissionsfags and bad drivers for ruining it for all of us.

>>28687656
Nah, it'd be thanks to people who actually think like this.

>>28687659
This is already the future. It's the future you chose.

Behold the master race.

>Fuel should cost more
kill everyone who says this

>>28688013
It's hilarious because poors are the ones affected by gas prices. They live further away from work so are forced to drive more. People with more money don't give a shit about gas prices.
