I seriously hope the passenger leaned over take that picture when you were going down the mountain... or you could have had an extremly quick descent at 9.8 meters per second off the cliff!

No, it was on a straight area when I took it. Easier to do with a digital camera with its big monitor.

And no, I don't put my car in neutral. That's dangerous and there are plenty of warnings against it in your manual.

I'm still not sure the hydrogen car will go over well because of the water coming out of the tailpipe. If you've ever been on the road behind someone who has water coming out of their exhaust (from the catalytic) getting all over your clean car, imagine what it'll be like with more cars doing that! They better figure out a way to contain that (drinkable?)water.
