I Was Not Quite Sure What I Was Looking At,

when I saw this picture,


it appears to be in the UK, the cars having UK registration plates and driving on the left, and in the extreme left hand lane it seems that electric cars can be charged whilst on the move, then I realised what was happening, the UK was copying the South Korean town of Gumi that in 2013 switched on a 7.5 mile route that allows buses to be charged in a similar, eco-friendly way without having to call back to the bus depot to be recharged, the UK idea is the brainchild of Highways England, a government department, and a study announced last week is to be funded, going back to South Korea it was found that that using this method meant that the battery size could be reduced to one third or even one fifth of the size and weight that are normally needed, I have no idea how what is needed to remotely charge a battery, but could you take your rechargeable batteries with you to recharge them? or how about a big battery that you could take home to power your boat or caravan, lets go one step further taking a really, really big battery with you in the car, to power your home!
