They don't always. Quite a few around here still charge. I guess the point is that quite often disabled people cannot use public transport or 'walk' to a destination so they need the parking places and offering them for free allows them to access the local businesses.
Completely agree. I don't see why Top Gear should be allowed to lie like this.Quote:

Teams running in several GT championships around the world, who slave and slave to find the perfect handling setup would be quite happy to run a good handling Lambo, thank you very much. And that competition environment is where these cars will be pushed to the max anyway, so what's the fuss? Nobody is gonna feel the difference EVER between the new Lambo and the old one in normal road conditions.
Why don't they break the steering column and put sand in the gearbox? A lot of this "fun" they're seeking will follow for sure.
Back on the electric car topic. I could (just) about understand Nissan's point if it were only electric cars that TG lambasted for poor range. Was it 'the worlds greatest road' episode, when jezza's Lambo ran dry? I don't recall a single complaint, or cries of misrepresentation then.
The point they were making was the time taken to recharge NOT the range.
