The latter. They did it with parking meters already


Parking meters can't provide 30+A of charging current.


Are you beind deliberatley obtue, or are you really that stupid?

My point was that street furnuture every 2 meters had been done already

Streetlamps also are wired to te mains. As are pay and display units.
Many of them are also on the internet

It's not rocket science tro cable up a street for credit card swipable
charge points

Thers a couple in ne of my local supermarkets. Ive even seen some one
use them once!




Charging points have been fitted to 3 street lamps near me. I have seen
them in use. There were a 2+ metres of cable from the car to the
socket. While it was bright yellow, it was also spilling onto the
footway - much as in the photo here

Ratio of street lamps to cars for the road is around 1 to 10. So will
there be very many more lamps? Or much longer cables?

And are there any personal injury lawyers in the house?
