The wheels on the (electric) bus go downhill

The electric vehicle revolution is upon us, and it is, quite literally, all downhill from here.
An electric bus run by Google barreled downhill in San Francisco, crashing into multiple vehicles and sending one person to the hospital. With “100% Battery Electric” plastered across the side of the bus, it allegedly lost power and rolled backward downhill, ping-ponging off of parked cars as it rolled.

On the bright side, San Francisco residents are already used to their cars being damaged by criminals breaking into them regularly, so a little bit of bus damage makes it just another day.
It is yet another fun folly in the EV revolution (minus the poor soul hospitalized with injuries because an electric bus couldn’t avoid rolling down a hill). This supposedly grand shift into the future has been highlighted by California mandating electric vehicles while its grid struggles to support the few it already has and by President Joe Biden’s energy secretary blocking a charging station with a gas-powered car to avoid a charging line during a promotional road trip. It’s a comedy of errors, and now you can see just how gas-powered cars have been thrown under the bus by environmental zealots.
Or, well, those gas-powered cars in San Francisco weren’t thrown under the bus so much as they were minding their own business and were on the receiving end of a beatdown from an electric bus that couldn’t hold its ground on an incline. If that isn’t a defining moment in the rushed push to impose subpar electric vehicles on society, I don’t know what is.
