That’s what the sign said: “Oil On Road.” There must have been a spillage, or perhaps an accident. How long before there is no oil on the road? Probably decades — as electric transport slowly supplants the diesel and petrol cars and trucks of today. Even without accidents, there is always a film of oil on the road from unburnt fuel and dripping sumps. Watch the news after a little rain makes the oil and petrol float off the surface of the road, making it slippery.
My daughter recently witnessed a Tesla Model 3 being rear-ended by a tradie with a trailer — all because the Tesla driver stopped as the lights were about to go red. I facetiously asked, “Did the Tesla burst into flames?” She replied, “No, but the driver looked like he was going to.” I am not suggesting that Tesla drivers are better drivers. I am sure that as more and more electric cars hit the highways, accidents will increase as people who like to speed get cars that can really perform.
