Electric vehicles no longer count as spaceships of the road; last month
alone, U.S. automakers sold about 10,000 vehicles with a plug, and a few
like the Nissan Leaf have become commonplace. Unfortunately for those owners
, the methods of charging such cars hasn't kept pace with their growth;
there's only about 6,800 public charging stations nationwide, and it's not
uncommon for an EV owner to have to ask for some spare juice.
But what happens if there's no one to ask? That's the trouble facing a
Georgia man who was arrested and spent a night in jail — all for taking
electricity worth about a nickel.
According to WXIA-TV, Kaveh Kamooneh had plugged in his Nissan Leaf to an
external power outlet at a Chamblee, Ga., middle school while his son played
sports inside. Kamooneh says 20 minutes after plugging in, a police officer
asked if he had permission to do so; when Kamooneh noted that no staffers
were around, the officer accused him of stealing.
Eleven days later, the Chamblee police came to Kamooneh's home and arrested
him, forcing him to spend a night in the county jail. A Chamblee police
sergeant told the station the amount of the theft was immaterial — what
mattered was that Kamooneh took without asking.
Kamooneh's arrest appears to be the first of an EV owner for supposedly
stealing energy, a crime usually pursued only on the level of entire homes
sucking illicit electrons. Electricity isn't so expensive nor rare as to
require criminalizing such borrowing; no airport has ever cracked down on
flyers using outlets to power their laptops. The new world of electric
travel may need not just new places to re-fuel, but new social rules for
doing so. | m***y
