BBC News - EU wants no petrol or diesel cars in cities by 2050
There should be no petrol or diesel cars in city centres by 2050, the European Commission has proposed.
...
By 2050, it wants the majority of people taking a journey of more than approximately 186 miles to use the train, rather than a car.

Mr Kallas said this move, plus the phasing out of petrol or diesel cars in city centres, need not inconvenience people.

Well, if they don't want them in the cities, and don't want them going cross country, why not just make them illegal now?
Oh, you mean the workers at Daimler Benz and BMW might start burning shit?
No, really?
