The green car debate
There is a world wide debate going on behind the scenes, Should green friendly cars be paid special attention ? With motor car enthusiasts claiming that sports cars are just as important as hybrid cars, going green is on the agenda of all countries in the world at the moment but with governments pushing for special treatment for green friendly cars one has to ask whether or not this would be a fair decision.
Some goverments and car dealerships are pushing for the Toyota prius and the Honda insight and other hybird cars to be given special treatment such as, special parking spaces, use of bus and transit lanes, cheaper parking when in metered zones and the list goes on.
Sporting cars / performance cars and general motoring enthusiasts are claiming this is an unfair decision and should not be passed upon any longer, it’s hard to see this ruling being imposed firstly as it is almost impossible to control who uses what lanes and what cars are considered green friendly, some sport cars have modded engines and accessories to still fall under what is considered a green friendly “Hybrid Vehicles” in these tough economic times car owners are installing such devices as plug-in electronics to diesel conversions and even such technology as petrol to power enhancers and many more modifications to their cars in order to get more millage out of their cars, Some owners have several green friendly mods in their cars that the fall under the “Green Friendly” / “Hybrid Powered” standards and this is what has caused so much commotion.
