Electric vehicles and the evacuation of Florida
It is fortunate that as of the current moment, electric vehicles constitute only about 100,000, out of nearly 8 million vehicles registered to drive on Florida’s roads.
Depending on how heavily loaded they were, even assuming everyone had a full battery charge, cars from southern Florida would start running out of juice after 100 – 250 miles. They would then have to spend hours at recharging stations, which would rapidly be clogged with other cars and trucks waiting their turn, since an electricity “fill up” can easily take an hour or more, as compared to a couple of minutes for gasoline.
n all likelihood, the highways would become vast parking lots, trapping their passengers wherever they happened to be stalled, waiting for the storm and flood waters to reach them, unable to get to safety.
A Taste of Reality !!
Vaccines matter. Hunker down since if you got an EV you ain’t going anywhere. Let’s see the WH Secretary spin this one.
I’m beginning to think that electric cars are actually a plan to lure people away from driving altogether. They make it harder to go the same distance and of course, much more expensive, but they still allow you to buy and own “a car”. It’s like weaning people off cigarettes with something that looks and acts like a cigarette but contains no nicotine. Smoke as many of these “cigarettes” as you like.
You could be onto something with this train of thought…………
