Michael from Contra Costa County

The recent decision to ban the sale of all cars and trucks by 2035 powered by an internal combustion engine. The  infrastructure to support this decision does not exist at this time and there is no way that California is going to be able to raise the enormous amounts of money to build that infrastructure without a massive increase in taxes. In addition the decision makes the assumption that the technology of battery powered cars will be available to make battery powered vehicles usable in all parts of the state, in all weather conditions and all the different terrain in the state. There is no reason to believe that this will occur before the cutoff date.
