I watched this and laughed along and now I can't wait to watch The Goonies with my kids.

Relief from ultra-bright headlights is coming — but slowly

We have a car with these headlights and on dark or poorly lit roads, they are absolutely worth having. For oncoming drivers, their path in the light is blocked while the rest of the surroundings are lit up.

Problem is though, they're not usually a standard option so there are untold numbers of cars that now have LED headlights, but not adaptive headlights.

Futura as an 80s Dark Fantasy Film

I would definitely watch this and from the comments, they're looking to make this a reality.

Electric car road trips are perfectly doable — if you plan ahead

Axios took a 1,500 mile road trip along the East Coast of America.

What we found: You can make a long road trip without fear of getting stranded, as long as you plan ahead.
  • That means juggling route-planning apps and billing accounts with various charging companies, which can get confusing.

This is what makes Tesla's infrastructure pretty compelling, it should all just work. Having to juggle apps and accounts depending on the charger is very different to optionally using a loyalty card when paying for petrol.

I'm not an EV owner, but to reduce friction, being able to pre-pay for a certain amount of energy (I'm thinking of a similar situation to using an Oyster card on the tube in London) or paying at the end of a charge with a tap of your phone or bank car would be the no brainer here.

EV adoption isn't going to slow because of the friction but I would have thought he friction isn't going to make it any faster.
