Sure, if you know that's what will happen. But sometimes you see a cop or flagger directing traffic off on to a detour, and you don't know how long the detour will be. Then too, there are times when I start out not knowing exactly where I'll be driving to (e.g. running errands and you have to go to several different places to find stuff).
If you lead a regular life, making the same 22.7 mile commute to the office every day and never going anywhere else, a pure BEV should suit you just fine. But not everyone lives that sort of life (or wants to). Why should we forego an option that would increase our overall mpg?
