The tangential directions are a panicked reaction of those whos debating muscles in this subject matter have atrophied from lack of use.

You're just obfuscating the original argument by questioning the meaning of mandate with some fancy copy paste etc. Now tell us why you support or are against or are neutral to the ICE ban and EV only sale mandate

I merely participated in trying to counter the obfuscation of the word. I wish I didn't have to, but given the tendency of the echo chamber participants to have selective memory, misquote, distract from what was said, and put words in people's mouths, I unfortunately continually have to quote past posts.

It's quite hypocritical to reprimand me for replying to comments directed at me while you and Efthreeoh feel entitled to do the same. For all intents and purposes, neutral.

I WFH and have waaaaay to much free time most days. If I disappear from the forums for a few days, it's my busy time.

"Mr Morrison's insurance said they were investigating the incident, which has left him unsure if he would drive another electric vehicle again." Many cars, including ICE vehicles, have braking, steering, and accelerating by wire options. These are not equipment that are exclusive to the EV. In fact, the MG ZS EV is a mechanical brake according to this thread. There is little in the article nor the thread that indicates causality from the vehicle being an EV. This article is baiting by leading with the EV angle, and the driver's fears are misplaced on the EV since brakes have failed on ICE cars in the past as well. The article was chosen because the headline aligned with a predisposed bias. You either neglected or didn't bother to ascertain if the content was beyond superficially applicable because it was not in your best interest to contradict your bias. Cherry-picking articles like this is not only disingenuous and intellectually dishonest, but shows how confirmation bias creates a tunnel vision effect, lowering the ability to objectively scrutinize evidence and facts, and in the end, impeding reasoned decision-making.

This vehicle has the same braking system as it’s ICE counterpart so any defects in the braking system wouldn’t be caused by the fact that the car is an EV. This would be the equivalent of saying that I will only eat Knott’s strawberry jam because I had a hard time opening a Knott’s grape jam jar when the strawberry jam is packaged in the exact same jar.

You say the brakes are mechanical on this EV, what about the parking brake, that's right, it probably hasn't got a conventional one? making it a high accident risk for the uninitiated. It begs the question how would it pass the compulsory safety examination required after 3 years from new. |

Perhaps in its vast corporate holdings ExxonMobil owns the company that writes the software code for the MG EV controller or maybe even ExxonMobil manufactures the circuit boards for the EV control modules MG uses. This fits well with the narrative that ExxonMobil writes all the anti-EV content on the internet spewed by Sky News Corp. ExxonMobil manufacturers the faulty EV components and code and then has control of the news source content on the internet targeted specifically at YOUR anti-EV biases. That 'splains it. |

I was thinking the incident is tied to the EV-only regenerative braking function. Just a guess though.
