We keep hearing about the Chevy Volt and the Nissan Leaf and all these electric cars. Great, I have a hybrid and I am all for the environment.
But, what I can already see is the potential for stuck cars on the freeway.
Will AAA, for example, be able to help stranded electric cars. People ALWAYS push the envelope. I can see people sitting in their parking lot at work saying “I think I have enough to make it there” and getting stuck.
Has anyone addressed emergency aid for stranded electic car motorists?
