I understand 20% of buses run on natural gas. Seems like a good choice for fleet vehicles like that - garbage trucks, postal vehicles, UPS, etc.

The government could mandate most of government and fleet vehicles run on NG. It could remain an option for the public...and it would still take us off 38% of foreign oil.

I agree. I think all gov't fleets should be NG. I think private cars should either be hybrid or electric. It would save on NG infrastructure buildouts at gas stations. NG can fuel the power plants that provide the electricity.
