Gotta get there first, and some are in very public places. And, with kids esp girls, I'd probably only do that as a last resort. :confused:
Sorry, I left off my snark tag ? The correct answer is "It depends"

So you can't just pee behind the EA charger??
Ohhh - million dollar idea!
Attach a restroom to each DCFC - with a Keurig machine and a magazine rack, the average man could get a full charge while taking care of business from the throne!

Do you have a man on your holiday gift list who -- like so many men -- sometimes goes to the bathroom?​
If so, he needs a Stadium Pal. This is a bag that is strapped to the leg and attached to a tube, which is in turn attached to the wearer in a way that enables him to discreetly relieve himself anywhere.​

Maybe because gas stations 99% of the time are also convenience stores as well as gas stations. Most charging areas that I have been too are usually at hotels or backs of parking lots or in the middle of a town, so no place to just grab a quick drink and a snack like gas stations offer.
this is one reason why I think Emusky might also be a future genius. I vaguely remember reading an article where he was talking about opening a food chain. If he really does open up chargers to everyone and has decent food / service, like a Cracker Barrel on crack? Or off crack? In addition to having enough land in his original permits for said charging stations to build restaurants. (I have no idea never been to a single station) He could own a feel like those old school drive in roller skate type restaurants my parents went to just waiting to happen… without any extra fumes.

Or Ford should do all that.

He did mention something of the sort. Most Superchargers are near restaurants and shopping. Some have their own lounges with nice vending machines and coffee bars, Kettleman City here in CA comes to mind. But I also think that eventually charging technology will catch up to the point that it won't take more than a few minutes to charge and go, much like gasoline fillups now.
