Taxes are indeed quite high but we do have a lot of benefits(almost free and good healthcare, almost free and great education and research, unemployment benefits that are great, disabilities benefits are also quite good, cultural subsidies for operas etc.(we do not really know fund-drives or charitable events to gain…

Don't get me wrong, I think we can all learn from each other (mistakes and good things) We have an astonishing bureaucracy (about 30 percent of our working force) but we are working on getting this down and more efficient. You guys can make kit-cars, here this is not allowed, we have incredibly high roadtaxes based…
Aaah, I see, you mean the "normal" headlights, not the highbeams. But I can imagine bmw being able to to the same trick with the normal beams. Or make them automatically go to a lower power setting if oncoming traffic is detected. The possibilities are endless and I think BMW will not allow oncoming traffic be…
Why would this system no work on hills? If a vehicle is coming the opposite way, the camera will still detect it and the tunnel will be created. In the film at around 1:50 the car is traveling up a hill in a corner and it still detects the other vehicle...
ps BMW says 3 series can get them too
Yeah that's why the author of the piece is correct.I don't understand US DOT regulations(i presume they are DOT?) Here in Belgium, we still haven't begun the debate of driverless cars, but new headlight technology is no problem, a small study in belgium or somewhere else in europe(i think you can even use american…
I know, I am a youtube bmw channel subscriber and usually those films are super active, this one was very calming and "scientific" but sorry , I did a shazam and soundhound search, no matches as to who the composer is :(
I know, but watch the video, the computer automatically adjusts the headlights so that you get almost nothing directed at you, thus this becomes a better technology than hdh or xenons, because other drivers get no light directed at them at all, and the driver of the car has better vision
I stand corrected, you are right, but my basic premise, the laser not hitting the road and other drivers, but just "becoming" a very powerfull lightbulb is still correct, wouldn't you agree? But I imagine that being a wasteful procedure. I mean, first energy is converted to light energy, that light makes the atoms in…
Now playing
You do know that these do in fact just have the same effect as very powerful xenons. De laser is the source of the light, but is very smeared out, thus creating an very powerful lightbulb, and if the car were outfitted with high beam assist, oncoming traffic will barely notice them
I imagine there will be a "turner doomsday video updated version " somewhere in repository with those exact images on them... Can somebody please hack cnn to find out?
I never understood the big danger of shutting the car down unintentionally . I mean, sure you loose assisted brakes and steering, but guess what, you were able to steer and brake a car before all those inventions. Why is it soo dangerous that a recall is warranted?

fuynny, becasue cnn has lost all class (badoum, bad joke alert)
how the f*ck do you get in this thing, where are the doors? I mean lifting what?
sure euhm Vterminal = Squareroot((2mg)/ (CPA) Soo we take an dodge caravan se from 1991 with a cd of 0.45, a frontal area of 2.40m^2, weight 1750kg, G is 9.81(might differ a bit from region to region) and air density as 1,196 kg/m^3 so that would give us a Vterminal of 163 m/s and thus 586.9 km/h so that would be…
Even better news, found it...http://www.vroom.be/nl/tweedehands…
well, it exists. A mate of mine has a brown 147 diesel 1.9(rev happy engine, but alfa built quality) So I imagine being able to buy this one in brown http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/Drives/Search-…
Sorry ain't gonna work. Terminal velocity will be less than 250 by my estimates
