The invention relates to a storage tank (1) in a motor vehicle for receiving an aqueous urea solution for the SCR of nitrogen oxide in the exhaust gas. The storage tank (1) comprises a tank body which forms a storage volume (2) for the urea solution. The storage tank (1) furthermore comprises a filling pipe for filling the storage volume (2) and means for venting the storage volume (2) during the refuelling, wherein the filling pipe (3) has a filling head (9) at a remote end, and the filling head (9) forms an orifice stub (10). The orifice stub (10) defines an orifice (11) for receiving a fuel pump nozzle. Said orifice stub furthermore has an external thread for receiving a complementary union thread of a refuelling cylinder for refuelling by the gas displacement method. The orifice stub forms at least one secondary air opening when the refuelling cylinder is attached, and therefore, when a refuelling cylinder is attached, a sealing seat is bridged by the refuelling cylinder and refuelling by the gas displacement method is possible even if counterflow venting through the filling tube (3) does not take place.

A device and method for heat distribution in a hybrid motor vehicle are provided. The device includes an engine cooling circuit; and a refrigerant circuit for a combined operation in a refrigeration heat pump mode and a reheating mode, includes an evaporator, a compressor, a heat exchanger to supply heat from the refrigerant to air being conditioned for a passenger compartment; and a heat exchanger to transfer heat between a refrigerant of the refrigerant circuit and coolant of the engine cooling circuit, wherein the heat exchanger operates as an evaporator for the heat transfer, and as a condenser for the heat transfer from the condensing refrigerant to the coolant.

Driverless car ‘grand prix’ is world first for Britain’s motor city

Minister Van Nieuwenhuizen (Infrastructuur en Waterstaat) kijkt "serieus" naar een voorstel om het theorie-examen voor een motorrijbewijs te schrappen voor ervaren automobilisten. Zo moet het laagdrempeliger worden voor mensen om een motor aan te schaffen.

Het gaat in het plan enkel om het A1-motorrijbewijs, waarmee lichte motoren met een cilinderinhoud van maximaal 125 cc bestuurd mogen worden.

'Motor past in anderhalvemetersamenleving'

De RAI Vereniging diende als branchevereniging van auto en motor-importeurs het voorstel in. Vanwege de coronacrisis neemt de behoefte om individueel te reizen toe, zegt RAI Vereniging-voorzitter Steven van Eijck.

"En op het moment dat iedereen massaal in de auto stapt, groeit de druk op ons wegennet", stelt Van Eijck. "De motor sluit goed aan bij de wens voor meer individueel vervoer in de anderhalvemetersamenleving, zonder dat het risico op files te veel toeneemt."

De vereniging geeft verder aan dat in dertien andere Europese landen, waaronder in buurlanden Duitsland en België, de eisen voor het motorrijbewijs eerder al zijn verlaagd voor automobilisten.

De besluiten waren in die landen wel voor de coronacrisis genomen en een woordvoerder van de RAI Vereniging erkent dat importeurs gebaat zijn bij de verkoop van meer motoren. "Maar het maatschappelijk belang staat bij ons voorop", zegt hij. "Met een motor kun je snel en zuinig van A naar B en het biedt mensen meer keuzevrijheid."

Verkeersveiligheid

Minister Van Nieuwenhuizen onderstreept in haar reactie op het voorstel dat motorrijden in de praktijk om andere vaardigheden dan autorijden vraagt.

Of het niet ten koste gaat van de verkeersveiligheid als automobilisten met een motor de weg op mogen, zonder theoretisch te zijn bijgespijkerd?

"Het praktijkexamen mag niet komen te vervallen. Laat dat duidelijk zijn", benadrukt de woordvoerder van de RAI Vereniging. "Maar wij denken dat het schrappen van het theorie-examen niet ten koste gaat van de verkeersveiligheid. Ervaren automobilisten hebben die kennis al. Er valt hoogstens een administratieve last weg."
