Can you imagine putting in unattended chargers in the Hood? It would take about a week to make them charger deserts.

Free country.

Not when shoving these things down our throats at gunpoint is official government policy.

The amount of space these charging stations will occupy is astronomical compared to a gas station.

A friend plans his EV trips based on chargers near restaurants.

I plan trips based on where I like good restaurants

Ok that gas station is big but a charging station to service a similar number of cars must be larger given the time it takes to charge and the size of the charging units.

When the wind stops and the sky clouds over or it’s too cold or too hot then lots of people get stranded and can’t get home. That means more hypothermia or heat stroke cases where the electric EMT vehicles cannot come rescue them. If every family would get a few elephants or camels or horses (along with the infrastructure of stables & manure/hay disposal) then they will be prepared. And this includes making sure that all the schools, other government facilities, malls, strip malls, fuel stations, apartment complexes, HOAs, single family homes, and other places are ready to support these contingencies. Many homebuilders have neglected to put in place the infrastructure for feeding, watering, manure disposal, sheltering, and other services for these alternative transportation options. For cargo its even more complicated as there will need to be teams of oxen. The smell of preparedness will be strong. If you can’t smell it as strongly as the population density then the community isn’t prepared.

Can my H2O heater (30a), well pump (20a), waste pump (20a) and 2 A/C units (40a) all run at the same time when I am also charging an EV (50a)?

All three chargers in the driveway so the house doesn’t burn down.

Will all of these public chargers be in place before or after the California super train from LA to SF starts running? It’s so hard to keep with California Dreamin’
