Just a thought.

Some fool who wanted to commit suicide drove his car at high speed into the huge A12-side gas station "De Andel" late at night a couple of weeks ago. A fire broke out that engulfed the whole station in seconds, destroying it completely. It will take months to rebuild.
The fool survived and nobody else was injured - but it could have been a massacre.

If the fool had driven an EV at high speed into a charging station, it would be unlikely to do that much damage.

Because of the extent of the damage authorities have closed off the whole area, so the adjacent EV charging station and park area are now off limits as well...

Gas burns.

For confirmation go to people just like you.
For education go to people unlike yourself.
