Electric-vehicle drivers made to wait for public charging stations

Direct Line Motor Insurance, which commissioned the poll of 1,000 UK EV drivers, said it highlights the “significant challenges with public charging infrastructure”.

The average delay experienced by respondents who said they have had to wait to start charging was 22 minutes, although some reported times of up to two hours.

Some 74% of those surveyed reported seeing public charging spots blocked by cars not plugged in while 64% have found devices not working.
