    I am well aware of the issues with EV battery fires. It will require changes to how you do your job and the equipment used. That’s life.

    We’re not getting public transit everywhere in this country so we’re going to have to adapt.

      my desire for fancy treats is going to make your life personally objectively more dangerous. Thats life smuglord

      Why can’t you have public transit everywhere though? The soviet union did it and they are way larger with way more disparate populations than the USA.

        Because I live in America and there’s no way any kind of massive infrastructure bill that expands reliable public transit to every corner of the country gets anywhere in this day and age. Would love to be proven wrong.

        Literally yes. That’s how it works sometimes.

        But sure, let’s all just go back to horses and donkeys. Wait, no… those were dangerous, too. Fuck.

          I don’t get why you’re so dismissive of public transit being possible. Is it something with the ideological make up of the USA? I could give that until Miami is under water in about a decade. If its for physical limitations though then I couldn’t give that, once again the USSR was primarily mass transit. If they could do it back then the USA could do it now.
