The encounter between a Rivian driver and uninformed Tesla owner highlights 'a need for better education and communication within the EV community,' the Rivian driver says.
While it’s not 911 levels of illegal, where I am parking in a charge-only spot and not charging is a tow and a fine and a strike on your record, 3 strikes is a license suspension.
Now if only I could get the local police to actually enforce this piss easy rule…
People that abuse 911 services should be charged.
Even if he ‘wasnt allowed’ to use the charged because of Tesla’s rules, it’s not fucking illegal.
Even if it was, it would have been on Tesla to sue or report them to the police then. The Tesla driver could have phoned Tesla about that.
some people dont understand the difference between company policy/TOS and Law

Whos record? How do they determine who’s at fault? Do they blame the vehicle owner just because?
The same way they issue any other parking fines? Doesn’t seem that complicated.
He was allowed. Tesla granted Rivian owners permission to use the Tesla network.
