The few times I’ve charged an electric rental car, I had to go pee and buy snacks or go for lunch anyway… in my opinion a longer break of a few minutes from driving is healthy and safer anyway.
Replying to @benjirenji@slrpnk.net
For major highway corridors, we need to have chargers that are less than a 5 minute detour from the highway, at least one every 50 miles.
Otherwise someone with 250 miles of range, who prefers 50 miles of buffer (in case a charger has a long line or is broken) might need to stop every 150 miles. That’s a break a little bit too frequently.
