Long congestion delays could occur trying to charge on long trips during holidays. Daily driving is less of a problem since most people can charge at home. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfUJCWRFjig

Could this be a market opportunity for a restaurant chain like Sonic or Fuddruckers?

In Finland McDonalds has been installing 350kW chargers at their locations for a few years now.

It's pretty much the perfect location, the car usually charges faster than you can wolf down your Big Mac and fries.

The big super market chains are the other big player, they're taking customers from (overpriced) gas stations. It's usually a 5-10 minute detour to get to the local mega-mart and they have cafes and restaurants in there anyway - without the gas station markup.
