I read that charging at freeway rest stops is not allowed at the U.S. because commercial activity is prohibited by federal law at these locations. This is such a huge missed opportunity- rest stops are already at regular intervals on common travel corridors. This law should be ammended to create an exception for ev charging.

    There are chargers at some of the rest stops in California. I came across a number of them on a road trip from NorCal to SoCal.

      They are free. No commerce. Gov hand out.

      They are also slow. Unless you need to sleep, they are rarely worth it.

        I wouldn’t know, they were all being ICEd by gas cars because they were a few feet closer to the restrooms than the other spaces.
