A few years back there were car stereos that had a thin removable front plate so you could take that out when it was parked.
That way the stereo was useless without the front plate.
So, no one would break in your car to steal it.
I’d forgotten about that “solution.”
Maybe we need removable charging station cables kept under lock and key by an attendant. You would have to put down a $1,000 deposit on your credit card to use the cables for a couple of hours. Or we could try BYOC — “bring your own cables.”
To make sure we do not disadvantage EVs, all gasoline pumps would be required to keep their hoses under lock and key as well. You would need to put down a $1,000 deposit to use them to fill your car. Or you could BYOH.
There are so many possible solutions!
