Tanni Grey-Thompson: Disabled Drivers Face Barriers in Electric Car Transition

In this video, we explore the concerns raised by Tanni Grey-Thompson and other campaigners about the accessibility of electric car chargers for disabled drivers. Despite the rapid rise in public chargers, many disabled drivers are facing challenges due to inaccessible designs. We delve into the obstacles they encounter, such as raised kerbs, heavy cables, and poorly positioned touchscreens.
The House of Lords has taken action, passing an amendment to enforce accessibility standards. We discuss the potential impact of this amendment and how it could shape the future of electric vehicle infrastructure.
With up to 1.35 million disabled drivers in the UK, the need for accessible charging solutions is crucial. We examine the efforts of organizations like EVA England and the Motability Foundation to push for mandatory accessibility standards.
Join us as we shed light on this important issue and discuss the steps being taken to ensure equal access to electric vehicles for all drivers.
