In this video, I make the observation general road rage appears to be on the increase on Australian roads. Maybe also becoming more targeted at EV drivers? This led to my decision to remove various stickers (sometimes called Bumper Stickers) from my EV or battery electric vehicle (BEV) advertising the cars "enjoy the silence" electric propulsion method.
Historically I had used these stickers as a community education method to show there were more than just Tesla electric vehicles on the road and prompt people to ask questions about my EV ownerships experience. Recently however my better half was thinking these ‘proud to be an EV’ stickers were unnecessarily aggravating fossil fuelled, mainly diesel, vehicle drivers who hate electric cars so the EV stickers had to go.
He’s what you’ll find in this educational EV video:
– Observations road rage within Australian cities is on the increase.
– Questioning if the increasing numbers of EV’s on Australia roads may be leading to more aggressive behaviour from EV haters.
– A personal experience with road rage leading to hospitalisation
– Asking EV owners and drivers if they are experiencing more road rage?
– Asking drivers considering buying an electric vehicle if targeted EV road rage was a consideration?
– And much more….
