It's a bit different in the US, there are areas where they have signs up saying "X miles to next services" because of 50+ mile stretches without stations. I distinctly remember years ago trying to figure out how fast I could go across a section of Montana without running out of fuel between stations, so it's not entirely unheard of hear to have "range anxiety".

There are some stretches of 100+ km sans fuel stations in Europe too. It still isn't a problem, since you simply don't need to drive as much near the end of your projected range as you will in an electric car.
