Yeah, in practice you do have single lane sized paths used in both directions, and having as meter wide "truck" coming from the opposite direction won't be pleasant. Well, this is the kind of problem I like having - it means the new e-vehicle ecology is working.
I think there are plenty of solutions for this, enough so we don't have to worry this early. Easiest is simply having a "no cargo" sign at the entrance of smaller bidirectional paths. But in practice, I think we'll see a mix of municipalities increasing lane size and producers coming up with smaller cargo vehicles.

- radu_floricica 5y agoHis problem is with meter-wide ones, which yeah, are a bit of a stretch. But like I said I think it'll fix by itself - they're not the kind of vehicles you take on a forest pleasure ride anyways. They're probably more useful for business use.
