There are many electric car owners here in Spain, at least where I live. Gas stations are equipped with stand up chargers, and many apartment parking areas and underground high rise parking also have chargin areas.
Since I cannot drive anymore, I kind of have a pet peeve with them. Walking eerywhere, I find the elctric vehicles too quite to be heard far away, and they do surpise me when I cross a street at tmes. I try not to stop cars whenever I cross streets but I do not hear the electric ones.. It is not such a disadvantage, but if they do not see, and I do not hear them, there ccould result a trffic statistic.
