EV news from CNN

‘Charger hogs’ are ruining the electric vehicle experience. One company is clamping down on bad manners
I couldn’t get the link to work, but this article is reposted on Yahoo news. Worth a google to read.

Probably the same people that were at the Hootie and the Blowfish concert i was at last night…My daughter got lawn seats and we had rain…99% of the people were sitting with raincoats watching the opening acts ( Edwin Mccaine and Collective Soul) ..8 people directly in front of us had umbrellas and stood or sat twirling the umbrellas while almost everyone behind, around or in front of them were sitting down…couldn’t see a thing and they could care less that they blocked everyone’s view…just when you figured out how to see they would move over and block someone else…rude people are everywhere BUT i pulled a reverse uno and stood in front of them to see Collective Soul so i didn’t block anyone’s view but those people….Rain ended and for the main act almost everyone stood and it was a great show….dont like being petty but their is always someone who thinks only they should get all the benefits…

looked like a group of guys in mid level management and their wives

something can be allowed technically but still be rude and inconsiderate

Never was a big Hootie fan before but if you ever get a chance to see them or Darius Rucker solo i would highly recommend…super tight band and great concert and he has an amazing voice

Hootie would be comparable to Meat Loaf, seriously that good!
By the way, thanks Rolla!

Maybe those fast chargers will need to be programed to shut off once 80% is reached? At least the thieves had not taken the cables.
