But I have seen an RS Megane in yellow on the road a few times now and it it the best colour for this car out of all the colours you can get it in.

I went back and forth of this vehicle because I do a lot of driving and the fuel economy wasn't great I have driven Subarus prior to my Jeep because they blend fuel economy with AWD safety, but a month after I bought the Jeep me and a few friends went up to the mountains on a ski trip for the weekend and got caught in a pretty bad blizzard with more then a foot of snow on the ground already cars were starting to pull to the side of the road or rather getting stuck on the way to the side of the road.

This is because the risk of an accident (and the insurance company paying out) goes down when there are fewer cars on the road.

As Lido has cars, the ride is simultaneously easier than cycling in Venice would be - fewer pedestrians not paying attention - and a touch harder for a Brit used to riding on the left side of the road - still I escaped mishap and enjoyed the contrasting urban and coastal areas.

The next few days were an awesome mix of adventure, near - fatal car crashes (careful of the buses who own the roads), tea, souks, fresh fish cooked on tagines, goats in trees, stray camels, left hand wedges, fun France'esque beach breaks, swimming in fresh water pools, jumping off waterfalls and all round good times.

Many interesting shops are right on the main road near the villa, it's about 1 km to the beach, and A Few minutes by car bring you to an increasing in number of fashionable restaurants including Ultimo, Metis, Ku de Ta, Hu u, The Living Room, La Lucciola, Trattoria, Mykonos, etc..

Don't worry, though, Playground has carefully balanced out the actual amount of cars roaming the roads, so you don't have to be dodging cars every few seconds, but there's enough to keep yo on your toes and your eyes on stalks.

Also, cars tend to smear dirt, dust, oil, and tire rubber on the stuff they drive on; after a few weeks of use, a «solar road» would probably be recieving very little sunlight.

I'm known to do some pretty dumb stuff in pursuit of electric car advocacy / education, but I am 100 % in agreement with Lloyd that we need a lot fewer cars on our roads altogether.

In 2012, the EPA bolstered the standards, requiring all new fleets of vehicles to get 54.5 miles per gallon, on average, by 2025 — a threshold fewer than 4 percent of cars on the road today would meet.
