Practical question 13:26 - Sep 11 with 1502 views | WD19 | Do we think the royal hearse is currently in a service station pumping 40 litres of unleaded, or do you think it will be a jerry can job? I know it risks skirting bad taste, but I have been wondering for the past couple of hours how they were going to deal with the issue…..now they have cut the feed whilst they do. |  | | |  |

Not sure a milk float or Nissan Leaf with the seats down is entirely appropriate, regardless of my own stance. |  |

The carbon footprint in manufacturing a car like that is quite high. I would settle for the horse drawn carriage if you're that concerned. |  |

The coverage mentioned something about a break ‘for safety reasons’ so I suspect they swapped drivers for exactly that reason. |  | |  |

I bet they drove off and forgot the driver who needed a wee. |  |
