MODERATORS
100% agreed on transit.
100% disagreed on BEVs - unless you can't charge at home (perfectly valid reason to avoid BEVs), slow charging is good enough for nearly everyone. fast charging is only relevant on roadtrips, and the infra is there in most places. far from perfect, but present and serviceable enough.
Then why the struggle to deploy new fast charging infrastructure? All we're doing is avoiding mass transit and subsidizing the battery industry.
What makes you think DC charging infrastructure takes anything away from transit? Both can happen and are happening simultaneously.
It's competition for passengers. If it's too easy and inexpensive for people to travel long distances in their cars, why bother with mass transit? I don't know about California, but here on the East coast, chargers keep popping up, the highways are getting wider, and there's barely any new rail service coming.
