I want this implemented everywhere but based on a queueing system baked into the app. You’re charged a congestion fee as long as someone is waiting on a queue.
Ohh I’d like to add if there was a way to not only add queues but a way to put your self in line so even if your not paying much attention the app tells you got a 5min window to make your way to the stall that just opened up and won’t charge for anyone other that the person who was waiting in line. (Keeping line cutters out)
They probably don’t want to get into the issue of what happens when you start charging and nobody is around, then you go to do something and while you’re starting your meal at 92% or whatever someone jumps in the queue. You can say the policy is basically above 90% you must wait in your car ready to move it if someone joins the queue but that kind of rule complexity probably doesn’t improve that much vs the simple congestion rule they currently propose

There are some legs of my trip home with a standard range model 3 I need to charge above 90% to make it to the next supercharger so I really disagree.
Sucks to be you, roll over and pay up!
That’s apparently how it’s in the app

That’s… what congestion means.
Except it could still cause people to avoid the charging location seeing all the bays are full (either in app or in person).
