The authorities will be anticipating all electric trucks within 20 years.


The chances are that there will be little or no fossil fuel supply infrastructure within 30 years - no matter what the consequences.


Recall that less than 10 years ago incandescent light bulbs were banned from sale and the planned replacements (the nasty and ugly fluorescent type things) were were already being supplanted by halogen items.


Now halogen are to be banned in favour of LED.


I would think it would be very simple to make it impossible to own and operate a truck privately without actually enforcing a ban - but ban they will if they feel they must.


Of course it might well be that any need to use a truck for leisure purposes will disappear long before they have to resort to a ban.
