"...The good news is, this whole ordeal was avoidable. The truck did everything it could to warn us and get us to a charger..."
Yes. Like the government. It is going to put us in a situation we didn't need to be in by forcing us to purchase these vehicles, and then tell us, when things like this happen, that it is our fault. Not theirs.
This sounds like a WEF approach to me.
Once the EV owner finally gets to a charging station, he/she better hope that they have sufficient score to buy the juice. Last week's junk food purchases might have enough demerits to make the charge not available.
