That’s indeed a major problem for many people. My neighbourhood e.g. noone has a garage, all but a very few cars are parked curbside (the last few park it in their garden, maybe under an overhang).
I’ve had my tyres slashed 3 times in a week recently, wonder what’d happen if there’d also been a high voltage cable running from my front door to the car…
And if a hundred such cables were running across the curb and along the street to charge all those cars (there’s no guaranteed spots in front of your own house, so you might end up parking a few streets away) it’d be a nightmare of people trying to find their own cables, and people stumbling and falling over them.
Only in areas where every house has enough garages to park all the electric cars owned by the occupants can it work, and of course there has to be a worldwide standard for sockets and power levels for the chargers as well (afaik that doesn’t exist, every brand having its own system).
