    My guess is: they queued up waiting for a free charger while the batteries burned up trying to keep themselves warm. But now they can’t move the csars close to the chargers. I think it’s a matter of lack of planning. When there’s suddenly a lack of fuel for some reason, you also get a “graveyard of petrol cars”.

      It was also because the chargers themselves stopped working due to the extreme cold. So the queue was quite a bit longer than usual.

        Reminds when the first iphone came out and people were complaining that their phone cracked from the cold. Apple issued a warning that the phone was to not be operated under 0C° (as usual, “you’re using it wrong”).
