EVs - Stuck in Traffic
Published at : 23 Dec 2025
This week I got stuck in a long traffic hold up - we came to a complete stop. As my mind wandered, I looked around at the other cars around me, and started to think about the internal combustion engines all working hard to do nothing. Let's discuss one of the downsides of internal combustion.
This is the latest in a series of videos sharing my knowledge and experience with electric cars. EVs have improved immensely over the last few years, and we are at a point where I think the majority of people can make the switch to electric.
