Would you buy a nuclear powered car?

Question

Why..?

or Why not....?

Answer 1

What do u do when U have a wreck?? the area could be radioactive.

Answer 2

ahmedinejad would of course..

Answer 3

Sounds strange...

Answer 4

Just when the thought of exploding gas tanks was passing out of conscious thought, now I have to worry about getting rear-ended in my nuclear car.

Answer 5

No, you would die from radiation.  Nuclear plants, submarines, etc. have several feet of concrete surrounding the reactor as shields.  A car wouldn't work unless it was huge...which would make it useless.

Answer 6

probably not....

possible atomic explosion,  radiation leakage, and the price of gas is up too!

Answer 7

I'd want to know how the nuclear core would be protected during a wreck. If that kind of safety standard existed, then in theory, yes. Somehow I can't imagine that being doable though.

Answer 8

Too much dangerous!

Answer 9

No.

The risk is far greater than the benefit.

Answer 10

It depends on many things! Will the car be built for extremely long longevity, will the fuel be encased in an accident proof container, and will it be financially feasible over the long years of ownership!

Answer 11

Hydrogen at 700 bar is better...

Answer 12

We may have no choice in the future, seems it's out of most of our hands.Also we need more public transportation.

Answer 13

Yes - The nuclear material would be a battery and a gas so it is useless as a terror weapon.

Imagine never having to get a fill up.

Answer 14

no. because I don't have 10 million dollars to spend.
