EV infrastructure In Hurricane situation.

[Florida Panhandler]

I have been monitoring the Tesla Supercharger Network and EA throughout in real time for the past 2 days and the EV charging situation has generally been great and a real lifesaver. Despite the rampant Anti-EV claims by both know-nothing shills and certain actual Florida politicians it turns oit owning an EV has been your best option to evacuate. Gas stations have been out of gas for days in some cases and those that do have gas have had lines blocks long. Meanwhile my real-time monitoring of Tesla Superchargers and EA stations reveals plenty of stalls open at virtually every stretch of the escape route.

There should be hell to pay for those fools and scammers with their false claims about EV when it turns out in real life they have saved lives and so hope this topic is covered by the major EV YouTubers and other influencers. Gas stations are cited by many broadcast interviews right now as a main reason why they have not left Florida .—-out of gas.

Yeah, but EVs caused the hurricanes and made all the gas disappear from the gas stations in addition to starting houses on fire and kicking your dog. Plus, they are too expensive and nobody wants one...

I've been telling all my friends to drive our EVs in circles really fast between charges, I didn't realize it would cause this much chaos my bad y'all

Easy fix - tell them to change direction!

You're right. I'm selling!

EVs could’ve saved everyone, if only we could find the one that towed infinite mass.

Since that one is also a boat it could have simply towed the hurricane back out to sea.

and kicking your dog.

Someone once posted about how their dog is terrified of their Rivian. Now it all makes sense!

Meanwhile, CNN was reporting on Monday that most gas stations along the evacuation routes and in/around Tampa were running out of gas; while PlugShare showed that basically all EV chargers were still up and running.

If you waited until yesterday to evacuate, an EV was your best choice to do it with.

Can't pump gas without electricity either......

You could show up at a powerless gas station and backfeed electricity into their panel to let them run the gas pumps off the truck's inverter.

That would be a sight to see

But you can steal gas from another ICE without electricity. Try stealing electrons from another EV.
