This makes complete sense to me. Where I live, an overwhelming majority of charging stations are occupied by cars that are plugged in, but no longer charging.

This makes complete sense to me. Where I live, an overwhelming majority of charging stations are occupied by cars that are plugged in, but no longer charging. Officially, they can stay there indefinitely. The biggest charger network in the area worked on an unlimited plan model for a long time, so it makes sense that they wouldn’t have a problem with fully charged cars hogging the network because it means fewer cars would charge and cut into their profits, however they don’t implement extra-fees-when-done-charging even for pay-as-you-go clients, which makes no sense to me. In response, the city is by and large limiting charge times to 3h. Which is great if you have a fast charger, and very annoying if you have a plug-in hybrid.
