what's that law concerning the physics of a body in motion? Something that says you cannot extract energy from a moving object and expect the energy to not run out?
Otherwise I'd have had a half dozen windmills with alternators hooked up to the top of the car.
I do think it would be cool to have a vehicle that used electrical generation as its sole source of slowing down the vehicle. Imagine using a generator being spun very fast from the coating energy of a car to stop it. Done right, I'm sure it's physically possible, and that would certainly recharge the batteries a bit, especially if going downhill.
