I'm a little surprised that none of our esteemed leaders have come up with Pumped Hydro as a fuel alternative for motor vehicles

I thought about it a bit and reckon I have a solution, although it probably wouldn't easily adapt to motorcycles.

The system consists of :-
. a bucket of water on the roof of the car
. a hose from the bucket to a turbine on the back seat connected to the electric wheel motors
. another bucket (empty) on the floor to collect the water once it passes through the turbine

I think the operation is pretty self explanatory so I won't go into any detail here.

The last item required is a mechanical water pump driven by one of the road wheels when you are going downhill to return the water to the roof bucket

How do I go about getting a patent on my idea?

You might like to include a neck brace in your patent  to help your head to support the bucket of water................Although I suppose if you got the water from say a very hot environment , it would become evaporated water , and therefore not weigh as much .

I think you should add a shower head as an option in your pricing. Just make the bucket a bit bigger. Nothing better than a cool shower on a hot day.  Very Happy
