What you're forgetting Ron is the greenies don't care about your situation! Getting rid of cars altogether is all part of the plan! They're not going to do it by offering viable alternatives with public transport so they'll just make it as awkward as possible and pay through the nose for it. Will the low emission zones disappear when we're all driving our low emission vehicles? Definitely not. It'll be road noise or rubber pollution or anything you can think of, but when the emissions box is ticked there'll definitely be something to charge you for!Our household has 4 adults and 4 cars (3 diesel, 1 petrol) and we all go in different directions at different times (daytime) .
Mostly all 4 cars are at home at the same time (e.g. overnight).
They all park offroad, round 2 sides of the house, and the Electric Meter Box is central to them (up to about 10 metres each way).
If all 4 changed to EVs, I'm assuming we'd need 4 EV chargers so they can all be recharged at same time rather than have to wait till one is available then do a 4-car-shuffle when we're asleep.
How much £££'s for 4x EV chargers?
And can they be switched off from inside the house, when no-one is home?
And be setup to use "economy7" timing...
Also, the RAC suggested in their newsletter a while back, that EV chargers somehow would be switched off to "ration" the demand at peak times...
If true, this does not seem even remotely helpful if 2million new EV users are switched to EVs and trying to use the economy-7 timeslot...?
