Seems like whenever I read anything about diesel pollution, much is made of cars polluting the roads. In my experience the cars are pretty clean: clean(er) engine, stop/start mode, etc.
The real pollutants I see are
Buses
White vans
HGV
And with buses going towards hybrid tech, I've only noticed one bus that exhibited this feature. I noticed because when it accelerated, it made no noise until it reached about 15mph which in though was wonderful. The bad news is I've seen hybrid buses which never seem to be in electric mode.
Seems like all the anti a pollution measures are proposed against cars which IMO do not need them. It sthe other vehicles that are polluting but whoever controls these things doesn't have the bite to tackle the real polluters.
