Dear Editor

Can we show a little forethought and practicality? Please? Has anyone thought about it? If all cars were electric and were caught up in a three-hour traffic jam they would all have dead batteries! Then what? 

Not to mention that there is virtually no heating in an electric vehicle. If you get stuck on the road all night you would have no battery, no heating, no windshield wipers, no radio and no GPS as all these drain the battery. You could try calling 111 but they would not be able to help you if all the roads are blocked and the socialist green weenies will probably require all police cars to be electric also if we still have police departments by then.

And when the roads become unblocked, no one will be able to move because all their batteries will be dead. 

How would you charge thousands of cars stuck in a traffic jam? That is a business I think I’d like to look into. Perhaps drones to deliver heavy batteries and someone to remove and install them.

There would be the same problem during summer vacation departures with miles of traffic jams. There is virtually NO air conditioning in an electric vehicle and if you do use it it would drain your battery quickly. This will make cars run out of “fuel” and create never ending traffic jams, not to mention high tempers. 

No socialist bent reporter talks about this of course. You can’t even call in horses to rescue you. The Socialists are against horses and cows who defecate and fart. Wouldn’t it be easier to just get rid of the socialist politicians who are trying to help China’s economy? 

Signed

Jim
