I don't think it is an option being investigated, because drivers have mandatory rest breaks. Communities like that trucks require the downtime, because they remember when drivers where coked up doing back to back runs pissing into a bottle and a danger to everyone.
- UglyToad 5y agoThis is a good point but they seem like slightly separate concerns in a sense. My limited understanding is that truck drivers tend to rest where they hit their legal limit which will often be a lay-by rather than a proper truck stop. Perhaps we could include charging points in most lay-bys to get an overlap in charging vs. rest breaks but it seems to me a shorter charging process via swapping in a truck stop would still be advantageous since the rest break and charging stop won't necessarily overlap in most cases.
