Ok, but once more idiots buy EVs, you will see assholes just parking at chargers, because America.

You already see this in major metro areas like Los Angeles. Assholes gonna asshole.

The current school of thought to counter it, is to charge them $1+ per minute they're connected to a charger, not charging. And the municipalities making it illegal to park in charging spots without charging with hundreds of dollars in fines per infraction. It's not perfect, but it helps a lot.
