It's not thye electric motors that are at fault. Once the battery tech gets 
sorted out, there will be no good reason to use dino-fuel.

Sure, but efficiency isn't everything. Fortunately, EVs are also better at 
torque than diesel and gasoline. 


Where they don't shine is range when actually working.

It's approximately 33 KWH of electricity is equivalent to 1 gallon of gasoline 
(probably less for diesel), so EVs with 60-80 KWH batteries are running a 
couple hundred miles (or more) on the rough equivalent of < 3 gallons of gas.

Kinda ironic...

It's called "rolling coal", and it is all the rage for people who think EVs are 
the devil's spawn.

In the past year I've observed that agressive driving seems to be the norm now. 
More assholes, especially pickups using farm diesel

Its more probable though that ride sharing grew during that period and the 
generation of party drinkers used it more as a matter of trend. 


Drinking establishments being closed or otherwise inaccessible due to the rona 
too probably playeda huge role, like the seeming disappearance of flu.

During Covid, in Utah, there have been the highest rate of deaths ever recorded 
due to car crashes. 
Meanwhile, at approximately the same time another experiment was running. 

Late 2018 Utah lowered the blood alcohol level for driving from .08 to .05%. 
Many, including myself, figured that there would not be a significant 
difference. 
But I also commented at the time that this one will be easy to prove or 
disprove. 

Deaths and crashes linked to drunken driving dropped by 19.8% since the law 
took effect. I think one could say that is statistically significant. Glad I 
was wrong.
