"Charging cables are heavy and require precision making them difficult for many disabled people to use. Also few charging stations have been added to disabled parking spaces."
Interesting. Why isn't the ADA used to require such affordances?
- toomuchtodo 5y agoI can’t speak to the entire EV charging landscape, but Tesla’s 250kw charging pedestals are liquid cooled and have thin, easily manipulated charge cables and Supercharger stations (at least in Florida) have dedicated handicap spots.
- bombcar 5y agoGas stations have signs posted saying that if you need ADA assistance and more than two people are working the station to tap your horn or call the number to get full service at normal pump prices. Something similar for “manned” charging stations would likely suffice (though many are unmanned).
