Sir, – While it is commendable that electric vehicles are being rolled out across Garda stations, obviously not all of them have EV chargers. Today I observed a Garda car parking up at a public charging point in a midlands town. One hour later, having completed my loop walk, the Garda car with its sole occupant was still there being slowly charged.
Garda management constantly complain about their resource shortage, but does their lack of foresight in allocating Garda cars to stations without fast-charging facilities not amount to wasting police time? – Yours, etc,
DAVID LOUGHLIN,
