Dalan Zartman, president of Rescue Methods LLC, points out some of the manufacturing flaws that may be found within electric vehicles on 'The Evening Edit.'this week asked transportation officials to consider whether electric vehicles should be banned from evacuation routes until more charging infrastructure is installed along major highways.
"With a couple of guys behind you, you can’t get out of the car and push it to the side of the road. Traffic backs up. And what might look like a two-hour trip, might turn into an eight-hour trip once you’re on the road," Martin said, according to"My concern is there’s not an infrastructure currently available in the state of Florida for the amount of EV’s that might be used to evacuate, on evacuation routes, during a time of emergency," the GOP lawmaker added.
Tillander told lawmakers he would raise Martin's concerns to other agency officials, but said the department's preference is to find ways to help electric vehicle owners evacuate with their vehicles just like gas-powered car owners. Tesla cars charge at a Supercharger station on Culver Ave. in Irvine, CA on Friday, Jan. 28, 2022. The Biden administration has approved hundreds of millions of dollars in federal funding for states to build electric vehicle charging stations.has guidance encouraging people to plan ahead for disasters, including making sure that their EVs are "fully charged" before they evacuate and finding relocation destinations that are within range of their cars.
DEFINITELY NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT FACT BECAUSE THEY WILL I TRULY BELIEVE.
Just ban electric cars. After a hurricane, how exactly are we to charge them when we have no power anyways for weeks. Or there are wet from storm surge.
Electric cars are dangerous to the environment into the safety of mankind. Look around what damage the environment more than electric vehicles using electricity at a enormous amount. Just to make the batteries the electricity use is staggering
China and the Biden family, want you to buy electric vehicles .. after all they are the sole providers of the batteries needed to run them .. Just think, if you do buy one, the Deep State government (Obama) can shut down the electric grid to stop you dead in your tracks!
Gas cars may be slow, unreliable, smelly, and from grandma's era, but in an national disaster, I want one.
We feel the same in snow states.
Electric vehicles are inferior to gas vehicles... everybody knows this
Sounds awesome
With all the crap we got going in Florida and somebody is worried about this, and I vote red
Wow, that is a very good idea
🤣🤣🤣
They should. Even if they have a good charge, some are susceptible to fire/explosion in water over 6' or hard rain.
EMT attacks will make them worthless anyway.
If we can’t depend on JoeBiden to shoot down a Chinese balloon how can we depend on Chinese electric batteries to run EV. It’s all a scam. 10% for the BIGGUY
Anyone jumping into electric vehicle fever must consider total dependency on China replenishment of your car batteries for the rest of your existence. I rather be self reliant and depend on American Gas Vehicles for mobility.
Or they'll catch fire, marshmallows anyone.
It’s going to happen!
Can't borrow a can of Q from a passing motorist.
A very serious issue. EV’s will kill millions we need to ban EV’s now. No Constitutional right to own an EV.
I say, “have no input.” Let everyone do their own thing and then they’ll learn on their own, through experience.👍
The ban won't be passed until it happens. Can't you just see it now, multi lane highways blocked by hundreds of EVs that have run out of juice.
Actually they should consider it. Also at high risk with extreme rain and driving into water. (Fire/explosion hazard)
Ban EV!!
