  • I live in Denmark, here the chargers are placed where people park anyway. Grocery stores, parking lots, rest stops…

    It’s getting so easy to find a fast charger/resto combo, that we don’t even plan it from home.

    I’ve seen few 200+ watts chargers without looking for them, but the car is ready faster than I am anyway.

    1. I don’t have enough charge for my trip. I’m also thirsty.

    2. I go to a grocery store with a fast charger.

    3. I buy a drink.

    4. I have enough charge.

    If it’s a long trip where I need more charge, I choose a car snack, and I’ll have enough.

    If I’m on an actual long car trip and I want to charge all the way from the warning light to 100%, I will need to eat a meal anyway. I just find a McDonald’s/cafe,/restaurant/whatever with a fast charger, and it’ll be full before I’m done.

    But finding a store/eating place with a fast charger is still waaaay less convenient than just finding a place where I can get diesel in seconds, and find a different place to get drinks/food/snacks.


  • When I was in Denmark I was shocked how many cameras there were, everywhere. I mean not just in the city, but everywhere on the countrywide.

    I’ve lived in Denmark for decades. The only cameras I see are basically surveillance cameras in stores etc and speed cameras. I see more cameras in most other countries I go to.

    We have nothing compared to fx. London.

    Where did you see cameras?

    Denmark is one of those weird countries where its illegal to have your map software tell you where the speed cameras are.

    That’s not correct. You can even buy gadgets for this in many stores.
