I have been wondering why more passengers (including me)... are choosing Spiro Rwanda electric bikes over fuel-powered bodas! Here is the logic; A litre of fuel is costing 2,938 Frw. On average, one litre allows a fuel-powered bike to travel about 40km. In comparison, a fully charged battery of a #Spiro electric bike costs 2,450 Frw and allows travel of up to 75 - 80km. That is nearly double the distance at a 20% lower cost. For Boda Boda guys, it means reduced operating expenses, and for us the passengers, it translates into more affordable fares. No wonder Spiro bodas are winning the streets! #EnergyOnTheMoveshow more

A long line of passengers has formed inside the... Bengaluru Airport terminal, all waiting to secure a taxi. The queue stretches across the terminal, with weary travelers patiently standing in line after their flights. Due to the high demand, the minimum waiting time for a taxi has extended to nearly an hour, causing frustration and fatigue among passengers. Airport staff are working to manage the flow of people and provide assistance where possible, but the influx of travelers appears to have exceeded the available transportation capacity. Many passengers are expressing concerns about the delays, especially those with connecting travel plans or early-morning commitments in the city. Efforts are reportedly underway to bring additional taxis to the airport, but the wait time remains lengthy for now. As the airport sees higher volumes of passengers each day, the need for more efficient transit solutions has become a critical issue. #bangalore #bengaluru #airport ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ನಗರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್‌ BengaluruCityPolice Uber India Ola BLR Airport ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಸಂಚಾರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ BengaluruTrafficPolice CP Bengaluru ಪೊಲೀಸ್ ಆಯುಕ್ತ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು S.

This is called ‘Mass Rapid Transit of Trucks’. Imagine... how much diesel can be saved by transporting fully loaded trucks on trains. If a truck has to travel 1,000 km and a train carries it for 700 km of that journey, the savings are substantial. Also, trains can be much faster.show more

In 2024, Russia faced a 13-year record jump in... gas prices after a series of Ukrainian drone attacks on refineries that caused fuel production to collapse by more than 10% in the first half of the year. According to Rosstat, from the beginning of the year to December 23, gasoline prices rose by 11% on average in Russia. At the same time, prices in remote regions of the Far East exceeded the Russian average by a quarter. By the end of the year, gasoline price growth will be the strongest since 2011. For the first time in 6 years, gasoline prices have risen significantly above the headline inflation rate, which the Russian ministry of economic development estimates at 9.7% a week before the end of the year. This year, the Russian government tried to curb gasoline prices by banning its exports: the restrictions were imposed shortly after two dozen major Russian refineries were attacked by Ukrainian UAVs and a number of them were forced to halt production. By the end of May, the decline in gasoline production in Russia reached 20% compared to December 2023, and diesel fuel - 11%. In response, the authorities classified fuel output statistics, citing geopolitics and the threat of market manipulation as reasons. In 2025, gasoline will continue to rise in price in Russia. In the best-case scenario, it will rise by 10-15%, and in the worst case - 20%, which, according to Rosstat, has not happened in Russia since 2004 (when the cost of fuel jumped by a record 31.3%). The reason will be an increase in Transneft's pipeline pumping tariffs, as well as a sharp increase in excise taxes: they will rise 14% for gasoline and 16% for diesel fuel, which is three times more than was provided for in the Tax Code (4.7%). According to government calculations, this will bring 170 billion rubles ($1,6 billion) to the treasury, of which 116 billion ($1,13 billion) will be due to the unscheduled increase. Rising gasoline prices will automatically lead to higher prices for everything else in Russia, as the cost of fuel is included in the delivery of all goods and automatically increases the cost of the end product for the buyer. Inflation in Russia will also increase.show more

Russia has started targeting Ukrainian passenger trains recently. So... now, in case of attack, trains stop and people get out (train cars burn down in minutes if attacked). Passengers of the Lozova-Lviv train lit up a fire as they wait for hours for the attack to end. It's still cold during the night in Ukraine.show more

As the Hyderabad - Purna Express slowly pulled out... of #Lingampalli Station, a female passenger attempted to board the moving train. In a split second, she lost her balance and slipped into the dangerous gap between the platform and the train. Thanks to the quick thinking and heroic actions of our on-duty RPF personnel, Sri P.

Tesla has introduced an updated website for the production... version of the Tesla Semi. "Charging with electricity can be cheaper per mile than refueling with diesel, and BEV maintenance costs are significantly lower given the absence of diesel aftertreatment systems and relative simplicity of electric powertrains. As a result of these savings, local and regional operators may be able to achieve a positive ROI prior to their standard diesel fleet replacement turnover cycle. With remote diagnostics, over-the-air software updates and fewer moving parts to maintain, operators will spend less time at service centers and more time on the road."show more

In a bizarre display of recklessness, a girl pulled... the emergency brake chain on a moving train simply because she wanted to get off at her station. The act caused unnecessary panic and delays, highlighting a shocking disregard for safety and common sense. Even today, some stations in India are such that you can pull the chain wherever you want and decide your own station. Think about other people who travel by train. They too have urgent needs to go somewhere, they too need to get there on time. Don't cause trouble to others for your own benefit.show more

One of the strategic targets hit last night in... Iran was the Shahid Mirzaei crossing. This is a tunnel along Highway 71, a key route connecting Bandar Abbas directly to Tehran via Yazd. It's nicknamed "the Bottleneck" (گلوگاه), and is well deserved. The surrounding topography leaves no practical bypass route between central Iran and Bandar Abbas within a corridor more than 100 kilometers wide. Any alternative route would require a major detour, resulting in significantly higher transportation and fuel costs. If this disruption is sustained at this location, the economic and logistical impact will only continue to accumulate.show more

Medball drills are great for power development. They’re also... an outstanding way to prepare the athlete for violent rotations via hitting and throwing. For us, medball volume is high at this time of the year as most guys are taking a break from throwing and hitting. By keeping our medball volume high we’re able to train power, without the increased stress of swinging a bat or throwing a ball (more CNS stress).show more
