Hi Guys, Just to use my tuppence worth. A car isn't a faraday cage. Take any hand held device used inside the vehicle like a hand held amateur radio, PMR 446, a mobile telephone, gatso detectors, a gps satellite detector and your on glass antenna for your radio, is inside as well. All of these work within the vehicle, so any signal that can be received can be transmitted. A car isn't an effective faraday cage atall.
All this business about introducing Darlings system is all hyped up. There isn't a cat in hells chance in it taking off as there's far too much in liberty stakes alone, never mind how and who will run it and incidentally at what cost to us the public. There 's no doubt that we all agree the roads are filling up rapidly but surely to try and resolve the problem short term the guverment should resort to sorting out the public transport sectors and addressing putting freight back on the rails and sea, a job they should have solved years ago, but as all parties do they've faffed and farted about instead of addressing the real problems correctly and positively. Darling's got as much chance as this working as I have platting fog. This guverment needs to get real. Another note, just wonder how much Mr Darling got paid for thinking this one up? Dave
