Almost got run over in the crosswalk when a driver pulled up fast (after I had already entered the crosswalk) and failed to stop and had to slam the brakes halfway into the crosswalk.
Then he had the nerve to yell at me about it

EVs create huge pollution problems of their own. We need less cars and more walkability/bike infrastructure/public transit, not heavier cars.
