Re: Do not idle for more than 3 minutes or else..

We live in a society where everyone depends on the government to tell them what to do, if you don't agree then you are lying to yourself. We are told what we can and cannot do every day by the govt. You do have the freedom to do what ever you want with your gas but when the extra pollution your car is creating from all of the unnecessary idling is causing the air quality to shift into the unhealthy air quality category. You are taking away the rights of people with asthma and other respertory illnesses to be able to go outside and breath. Or when the air quality is as bad as it is in Tokyo, the rights of everyone to be able to go outside and breathe clean air. I was reading they have oxygen stations around the city because normal air contains 21%oxygen and in Tokyo it is around 12% I think it said. Anyways, if you are somewhat intelligent when it comes to the real world you would know pollution is bad, cars pollute, idling creates unnecessary pollution and wastes fuel causing there to be less fuel driving up the prices for everyone else. Everyone loses from idling, even you merkzu.
