Since retirement I’m working one day a week as a Sanitation Engineer, it’s very rewarding except when it’s raining, I’ve got a long driveway . Here’s my billion dollar idea for all you EE’s , invent wireless transfer of energy for electric cars and imbed it in the right lane of 4 lane roads. This way when driving in the right lane the auto is powered by the grid but when passing in the left lane or venturing off the 4 lane it is powered by batteries. This solves multiple problems. It solves the problem of long distance travel in electric vehicles. It allows the more practical use of smaller batteries in cars. But mostly it keeps all you slow assed no driving some beaches out of the left lane.
Inductive charge lanes is already an idea at least. I can't conceive of the money it would take to build and maintain it, especially in places where roads heaving due to clay is a thing.

ETA: At some point maybe we will all be driving slot racers?
