EV Owners Allegedly Put Up Bizarre Flyer Calling Neighbors to ‘Ration’ Power Use…So They Can Charge Cars

A group of concerned neighbors who reside in Brighton, a suburb of Melbourne, Australia, proved once again why this world simply isn’t capable of handling the energy demands of the masses owning electric vehicles.

According to the Daily Mail, a flyer was posted by the previously mentioned group of neighbors requesting that residents who reside on their particular street agree to an electric vehicle charging schedule, and refrain from using electricity to power appliances while EVs are charging, citing infrastructure challenges.

“As we encourage everyone to go green, we have been presented with some challenges in relation to electricity use,” the flyer read.

It should be noted that the outlet couldn’t verify the specific street or where the flyer originated, but the Mail reported that the person who shared it to a public Facebook group insisted it was authentic.

It’s not unreasonable to believe that it’s real, as more and more people who have purchased EVs have quickly realized that — until we can capture lightning bolts effectively — electricity simply doesn’t appear out of thin air.

The group of neighbors behind the asinine flyer indicated it had met the night before it decided to post the request, determining during the meeting that in their neighborhood, the “infrastructure is from 1822 and our cars are from 2022!”

It was also noted in the flyer that it was exclusively the “EV crew” from the neighborhood who attended and held the meeting, meaning non-EV-owning neighbors apparently do not get a say in whether or not they believe it’s fair to sacrifice their electricity needs for the sake of others being able to charge their EVs without the local power grid blowing out.
