Putting it in park at highway speeds depends mostly on how new the car is. Newer cars will put the transmission in neutral and probably yell at you with the dash. Older cars the parking lock isn't strong enough to lock up the wheels at speed, so it'll grind and clatter or just break. Ruining the parking lock.
Turning the car off on the highway just makes you coast to a stop. Depending on if its an automatic or manual transmission; you might loose power assist on the steering if the engine stops spinning. Pulling the key out normally activates the steering wheel lock. Which is a whole other problem if you are still moving... Some automatics prevent you from removing the key if the transmission isn't in park though...
No; personally i find those annoying as hell when a car with those is behind me. Having partial high beams on either side from behind, that also come on and of with oncoming traffic, is really distracting. Never mind the "less good" implementations, that blind you through your side mirrors.
Or you could use the money to build really good charging infrastructure, and accept that a truckload arrives in 2 days and 6 hours instead of 2 days and 3 hours. Then you don't need a nuclear power plants worth of electricity in lost efficiency from charging wirelessly.
Or you know; trains for long haul freight... Regional freight should be perfectly possible with wired charging...
"Should from 2035 no longer any new fossil fueled vehicles be allowed?" Yes/no?
That feels like the worst possible way to phrase that question, or is that just me? Isn't it very susceptible to people answering; "No, they shouldn't be allowed", thereby accidentally answering contrary to their opinion?
It's honestly horrifying, how much of a rabid surveillance and police state the UK has become in later years. And baffling how relatively quietly it has happened...

Math is not mathing today, it seems...
"Average" does a LOT of heavy lifting on these claims.
What kind of dystopian bullshit are we living in, that
44%34% of your workforce not earning enough to live, is supposed to be a positive statistic?!Hopefully we can avoid the "7 nuclear missiles" -part...
Yeah; that checks out!
Marking Denmark down as "pork" is going to ignite civil war...
Yes I would like one highly integrated, unnecessarily complicated, fragile piece of repairability nightmare please!

Warp charging™
I don't think 50€ is going to help very much...
There is some irony in the fact that this meme is a .webp

There FTFY
Yeah, that would be a Grimm fate...

As fast as it will roll down a hill. A non-critical mass of plutonium isn't going to produce any significant heat for the boiler.
Aluminium extrusion plants. They wil close 5 of their 33 European extrusion plants...
