EV's are the electric companies dream, with off hours charging, all
those low WH usage numbers go up and billing goes up without
infrastructure having to go up that much.. The execs are drooling with
off hours incentives going down, but not away...

All you have to do is off peak charging. Just like internet usage, it
maxes out when everyone's watching Netflix with the dryer and stove running.

Better start building nuke plants!

Sure, but efficiency isn't everything. Fortunately, EVs are also
better at torque than diesel and gasoline.
Where they don't shine is range when actually working.

It's approximately 33 KWH of electricity is equivalent to 1
gallon of gasoline (probably less for diesel), so EVs with 60-80
KWH batteries are running a couple hundred miles (or more) on the
rough equivalent of < 3 gallons of gas.

Kinda ironic...

It's called "rolling coal", and it is all the rage for people
who think EVs are the devil's spawn.

In the past year I've observed that agressive driving

pickups using farm diesel (black-foul-smelling-smoke). I
been thinking of investing in a stash of bumper stickers
to stick on their trucks that says "shoot me please".

Its more probable though that ride sharing grew
during that period and the generation of party
drinkers used it more as a matter of trend.
Drinking establishments being closed or otherwise
inaccessible due to the rona too probably playeda
huge role, like the seeming disappearance of flu.

During Covid, in Utah, there have been the
highest rate of deaths ever recorded due to car
crashes.
Meanwhile, at approximately the same time another
experiment was running.
Late 2018 Utah lowered the blood alcohol level
for driving from .08 to .05%.
Many, including myself, figured that there would
not be a significant difference.
But I also commented at the time that this one
will be easy to prove or disprove.
Deaths and crashes linked to drunken driving
dropped by 19.8% since the law took effect. I
think one could say that is statistically
significant. Glad I was wrong.
