Anyone who witnessed the evacuation of southwest Florida to points north and east along interstates 75 and 4 had to immediately recognize how electric vehicles could not endure the hours-long idling inherent in such a mass movement of people in a finite time period. EVs would have long exhausted their battery life in the bumper to bumper crawl, and a methodology for recharging on-the-go does not exist. The lesson learned here is if EVs were to become the de facto mode of private t***sportation, vehicular evacuations would become obsolete and only those privileged enough to flee by boat or helicopter would escape natural disasters. The rest of us would be relegated to sheltering in place with no power, no water.
No politician, no g***n e****y activist, no media outlet, no academic, has come forward in the face of this reality to offer solution or mitigation to this very real shortcoming of the EV revolution. This highly-touted mass migration to EVs is too much, too fast, too shortsighted to ever succeed, except for the select few who profit (enormously) from the climate hysteria industry.

The best way is for American to become independent of foreign oil by using the HUGE capabilities we have. Then begin research into other options in a careful, controlled manner - instead of rushing crazily into wind/solar and their well-documented inadequacies and failures.

Well said.

Very true! And as the number of EVs grows, so will the reports of their shortcomings become more common place. They will eventually be revealed to be a product that fits a niche, not a good fit for the masses.
