THE STAR/DPA – Dogs have been found to be more relaxed when travelling in an electric car than in a diesel-powered vehicle.

This is the chilling moment British backpacker Grace Millane s killer smuggled a suitcase containing her naked body out of his apartment.
Jesse Shane Kempson was captured on CCTV wheeling the suitcase out of the Auckland hotel he resided to a hire car after strangling Grace to death.
The suitcase containing Grace, a 21-year-old graduate from Essex, was later found buried in mud and leaves in a forested area outside the New Zealand city.
The footage shows Kempson, 28, taking an empty luggage trolley in the lift to his third-floor room at Auckland s CityLife hotel.
Minutes later he wheeled it back to the elevator laden with two suitcases, one of which he later confirmed to detectives contained Grace s lifeless body, squeezed in by forcing her into a foetal position.
