Two men stood in front of the autonomous vehicle, operated by ride-hailing company Waymo, and literally tipped a fedora at her while she told them to move out of the way.
If it saves even one human life it’s worth switching to an alarm instead of immobilization, even if that means hundreds of breakaway cables get snapped by morons driving away from chargers.
Gas pumps are something you’re doing “right now”, so you ought to remember. Vs a charging cable s something you plugged in last night and left that way. Much easier to forget.
You’re very unlikely to change drivers at a gas pump so you probably won’t forget. Vs a charging cable is something your spouse may or may not have plugged in last night, and they’re not necessarily there to remember.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a gas pump with trigger lock. You have to be actively involved with pumping gas, holding it the whole time, so unlikely to forget
It’s been a reality for over a decade.

My point is that plugging in a charging cable is way down the list of attacker tools.
Sure, but it’s on the list.

What if hundreds of lives are lost due to broken cables snapped by morons driving away from chargers?
How the fuck do you think gas pumps work?
I’m done feeding the trolls.
So we are agreed. Immobilize vehicles both when they are charging and refuelling.
