Los Angeles (CA) ? The inventor of the ?KillaCycle? electric motorcycle almost killed himself during a demonstration at the Wired NextFest conference. Bill Dube, a government scientist during the day and electric bike builder at night, did a ?burn out? in front of the Los Angeles Convention Center, but accidentally accelerated too much and crashed into a Minivan.

I like how he says, "I'm not normally the driver, just the owner."

My son is a Engineer for an international company that R&D those A123 Lithium ion batterys.
It is this type battery that will power electric automobiles in the future. They still need work some 'bugs' out.
They are extremely expensive and seem to be prone to catching on fire and blowing up......

...kinda like a top fuel car
