To focus on the positive, this video has already been picked up by youtube and viewed by about 20,000 people: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pM1j2d1RMU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfVX71YqPuQ I predict that because of this accident, millions of people will soon learn about the incredible power and performance that electric vehicles are capable of. Should help electric motive power become a technology that appeals to those who love green, those who love economy, and those who love power. Glad Bill didn’t seriously hurt himself.

No smoke. No fire. Ultra safe cells. - Bill Dube’ gets off with a few scrapes and some humiliation - The bike needs relatively minor repair work - Bill will be more careful next time All good things!
