  • Sorry it’s early on the morning and I haven’t woken up fully but the pdf you linked talks about off street parking. Not driveways or garages. What am I missing?

    Are we expecting people to drape electric cables from their front doors across the street to their cars? And that’s assuming they are able to park directly outside their house and not down the road even on the same street.



  • My whole street doesn’t have driveways. In a whole neighborhood that doesn’t have driveways. That’s about 500 houses with about 400 cars. No shit. Some houses have multiple cars. The infrastructure isn’t readily available yet. It needs to be.

    In comparison you can drive to the petrol station, fill up a whole tank, pay, get a bar of chocolate, drive back home in about ten minutes round trip. That’s just one example of how different the infrastructure is.

    I totally agree that electric is the way forward, but let’s not pretend the situation is perfect.
