The number of locations is irrelevant. At least in the USA, most cars are already very well regulated. The bigger problem lies with trucks. Also, until fossil fuels are replaced in electricity generation, it's just moonbeam dreams and unicorn wishes. Also, battery production for EVs, hybrids, etc. is not necessarily great for the environment.
In many areas, this is not regulated by law but by legal precedent. Besides, laws can be changed and precedents evolve. Besides, depending on the cause of the accident, this could easily fall under existing product liability laws, regulations, and precedents.
The TSA was founded to extend the welfare state. Why else would you create an agency that's sole purpose is to stack grey trays. Remember, the original name for the agency was The Tray Stackers of America. At the last minute, they were forced to change the name, but since their spiffy uniforms and badges were already on order they needed to keep with the "TSA" initials.
After all, if the TSA was really supposed to catch weapons, terrorists, etc. at the airports I believe that even the Feds could have set up a better system.
The fear mongers are trying to gain more power by peddling fear to the masses---all the while wealth and power is being redistributed. Constitutional liberties are eroded one by one in the name of "National Security" and the "Greater Good". Fairly soon, the USA will be an oligarchy policed by the government's jackbooted thugs standing on the necks of those who oppose the will of the government. Nothing can be hidden from the cameras, wire taps, profiling, meta data, and cameras. All must obey or be put on secret lists, subject to secret laws, and held in secret prisons.
Cable subscribers are subsidizing sports. Comcast owns sports teams. The teams ask ridiculous amounts of money for broadcast rights. Comcast passes the cost on to their customers. And then their's ESPN.... I often wonder what cable would cost if I didn't have to subsidize the sports franchises. The same goes for my local taxes. Imagine if the sports teams had to pay for their own stadiums?
The Pentagon was completed in 1943 when the Government Communications Headquarters was still crammed into Bletchley Park. Sure, the Pentagon is not a circle, but it is a multi-ringed structure designed to optimize some of the same things that Apple has claimed to have solved with their design.

In the US, where over 60% of the electricity comes from fossil fuels, the Tesla is not a green car. Also, it is nowhere near zero emission.
He's Pluto's bounty hunter.
In a country where the chief executive makes claims that the US invented the automobile....yest, it is appropriate to assume we are all ignorant.

So, I see the Canadians are taking notes from the Americans and the British.
It would not feel like normal metal...perhaps curiously warm normal metal.

It's older than that. People haven't changed for 10s of thousands of years. We just have better records of the more recent stuff.

How bad was his first day of work at the tech-support line?
It's the edge of space, so I can see them using marketing that touts the ride is "so exciting, you only need the edge."
Just think what a belt of fat cats orbiting the earth could do.
They could reflect enough radiation to cool the earth.
I thought Obama said they brought in "top IT talent" to fix the problem? Is Verizon know for their websites working flawlessly under high load?
It also makes me think that, why did Obama only now bring in the "top IT talent". He should have started with them to begin with.
Oh, well.
The NSA already has the metadata. It's a bug.
Unless, of course, it is a documented feature.
Perhaps some sort of lead zeppelin would be advised?
Hot air bags wll not get into deep space.
It's only $2.50 per meter. (I assume it's free on the way down.) or $1.25 per meter (counting both ways).

Scientists go wrong...not science.
Sheesh!
Only God can be trusted...science must pay cash.

It's obviously Steve Job's Walled Garden!
Typical Apple. They are re-inventing the Pentagon (the DOD headquarters).
Maybe they should have several headquarters---in different colors.
Does the ruling open the possibility that the comment does not need to be anonymous?
