Just get rid of the charging stations. It's ridiculous that EV owners should expect to charge their cars anywhere but at home or at work.

So your suggestion is basically families should own an EV just for getting around home.. and a gas guzzler for long distance travel? IMO the ideal should be a slow phase out of the gas cars.

Or you know... instead of needing super heavy batteries... they could have smaller batteries... if charging stations become common enough that people can relatively easily find places to stop and charge on long trips.
