Most of the heavy-handed regulation, for electric or CNG, never takes in consideration any kind of freedom. They believe that everyone takes the exact same route of less than 50 miles every day. In the real world, this just isn't the case. If you are an OTR truck driver, service or sales work, or anyone else that has a life outside of a rut, the concept just isn't feasible. It works for city buses, etc... but not everyone.

I cover a region that is 4 hours north-south and 6 hours east-west, sometimes considerably more, and never a frequent repeat of routes. The idea of an electric or CNG vehicle being able to come close to filling the need doesn't come close.
