The Taxpayers’ Alliance is organising a series of city wide events today in Cardiff to protest at council plans to charge residents parking fees based on vehicle weight.
It is also protesting at the planned cuts in on-street parking in the Welsh Capital.
Cardiff is revealed to be the commuting city where drivers move fastest in the UK, with an average driving speed of up to 43 miles per hour during rush-hour.
In second, Stoke-on-Trent residents were able to average speeds of 36.2 miles per hour, while Tamworth drivers were very closely behind with a 36.1 miles per hour average and London ranks as the slowest city for drivers during rush hour, with average speeds sitting at a relatively slow 22 miles per hour.
Carpooling specialist Mobilityways has welcomed the International Energy Agency’s call for governments and businesses to encourage car sharing, and is urging UK employers to act immediately as energy prices continue to rise.
The IEA, which counts the UK among its 32 member nations, this week outlined ten measures to reduce energy consumption worldwide in response to the ongoing conflict in the Gulf.
Windrose Technology has demonstrated its hyper charging electric boost for HGVs which punched in 745amps in 42 mins.
That’s enough for a truck’s 250 miles range, which means it is charging faster and for a longer range than a driver can legally drive a HGV.
