Closed Ensure all premises offering Electric Vehicle Chargers enforce EV only parking.

Closed on

All premises(e.g. Supermarkets)should be mandated to enforce EV only parking in the space next to an Electric Charger if offering this service.This simple move nationwide would masssively boost the uptake & use of EVs. Hence help reduce air pollution in UK cities and decrease CO2 emissions.

EV drivers are regularly frustrated in using Chargers,being frequently blocked by Non-EV Internal Combustion Engine cars (colloquially referred to by EV community as being ICE'd).Although there has been an expansion in number chargers inU.K,to be more than a token gesture it must be coupled with restricting parking bays to EVs. There are multitudes of evidence if search social media for term "ICE'd", see example here.Best regards https://twitter.com/broccoliinmilk/status/818393145503260672
