Have you ever waited to charge on a DC Charger? (jlai.lu)

Hi everyone,

I’m a long time EV driver (first one being a Twizzy back in 2013) and I was wondering: have you ever waited to charge on DC fast charger on the highway for example?

One of my ev-skeptic colleagues told me I saw multiple lines of multiple EVs waiting to charge on the highway this summer. I never witnessed it or being through this myself and I’m more incline to think that this is grossly exaggerated but you never really know… so have you had such experience?

No, but I live about 45 minutes outside the city, plus I charge at home. The only reason for me to ever use a DC fast charger would be if I was taking a road trip, but if that's the case then I can intentionally plan to charge at a location with a lot of chargers and no line.
