5% of the cars on the road are more than a couple. There are over 250 million registered cars in the US. I don't remember the % discussed, maybe it was 10%. But it wasn't a high %.

And that was the exact fear the power companies expressed. These were CA companies, and they expect a much higher initial adoption rate there.

So yes, we have bigger problems.
