If the government wanted to improve the emissions from ALL vehicles, they could start by putting sensors on the traffic lights to make traffic flow more smoothly rather than to issue tickets. I don't care what you drive, when you have to slow it to a screeching halt and then sit at a light for 2 minutes why not another car goes by, then get rolling from a standstill to speed again- you are killing efficiency and emitting at your cars peak.
I've said it a bunch of times before. They could do as much to reduce emissions by putting sensors on traffic lights as they ever will by claiming they are going to require a stricter standard on new cars however many years in the future.
I'm not saying cars don't pollute- but agree with the fact that more pollution comes from buildings. Gary Indiana don't smell that way and have an orange sky because of cars.
