Car patrol eliminated the neighborhood police officer. Police were pulled off neighborhood beats to fill cars. But motorized patrol -- the cornerstone of urban policing -- has no effect on crime rates, victimization, or public satisfaction. Lawrence Sherman was an early critic of telephone dispatch and motorized patrol, noted, "The rise of telephone dispatch transformed both the method and purpose of patrol. Instead of watching to prevent crime, motorized police patrol became a process of merely waiting to respond to crime."

I imagine that oil companies wouldn't be so happy to see these hydrogen powered cars all over the streets. They will lose a lot of money over this. I guess this is the reason why the electric car isn't more popular these days although people do use hybrids. Will the inventor of the hydrogen powered car disappear like the inventor of the electric car?

We already have the schematics for a car that runs on water, but people don't want to put that into production because it would instantly kill the oil companies. We need to run out of oil first an then you will see the water car running on our roads.

For me, this is just changing an addiction with another. Using hydrogen is also expensive, it's hard to get so much of it. Plus it's dangerous. It's bad that the car companies decided to take this into their own hands. What will happen when the liquid leaks, and we're talking about one dangerous molecule, causing explosions? Use a car cover to hide it all? To pay so much, when there are so many things we can do with those money, it's just wrong.

Steven Chu is right on. It will take trillions of $ to get the infrastructure for hydrogen and where do you get hydrogen from? Fossil fuels, unless you want to build 100s of nuclear plants to create it which is even more trillions in infrastrcture. Then you have to deal with the smallest molecule on the planet leaking out everywhere causing explosions. This is why refineries burn off hydrogen instead of using it, it is just too difficult and costly to handle. Dr. Zetsche is out to lunch. Natural gas vehicle would be far easier to deploy, but in the end, electric is the technology since the cost of infrastructure is the lowest of any other competing technology.

Why don't they ever give a price for a hydrogen car?

Things that make you go "Hmmmm."

These cars run solely on Hydrogen. The biggest hurdle, other than price for low volume cars is the Hydrogen fueling infrastructure. As Mercedes (Daimler) and others bring in cars, the demand for stations will grow, aloowing for more and more cars to hit the road. Since the cars a zero emission, and hydorgen is both a non fossil fuel and domestically produced, a win -win -win scenario will emerge: reduced emissions, reduced depeltion of natural resources and reduced dependency on foreign oil (from an overall perspective).

If you still have to use regular fuel to make the cars run, what is the point in using hydrogen-powered cars? After all, the whole point is to prevent the consumption of all our fossil fules till they become non-existent.
