'Green-Rage' Boils Over: Furious Gran Blasts EV Owner who Charged Their Cars for 17 HOURS in area where there are just two charge points (and experts warn it's only going to get WORSE) - as drivers fight for spaces
A grandmother has taken to social media to blast an electric vehicle owner who left their car in one of just two local charging points for more than 17 hours in the latest incident of 'green rage'.
Elaine, who has five children and ten grandchildren, shared a photograph of a charging point with an electric screen showing the car had been plugged in for 17 hours and 36 minutes.
She wrote: 'This is the sort of thing that causes charge rage'.
Electric vehicle owners are
increasingly arguing with each other over charging points in certain parts of the UK because there are not enough available.
Many are claiming they are having to get up in the dead of night to power up their motors.
Experts warn the problem is set to get worse before it gets better, with an expected increase in demand for electric vehicles outstripping the current supply of chargers.
The boss of Britain's largest motorway service provider, Moto chief executive Ken McMeikan, said long waits for plug-in points made drivers 'very angry and stressed'.
