The state of modern cars is scary.

  The state of modern personal electric vehicles (PEVs) is outstanding though; good enough to replace owning a car for most people! I personally have been riding an electric scooter this summer, and paired with a nice backpack, it has comfortably replaced all of my regular driving. For people who want to carry more than me, an e-bike with panniers or a cargo e-bike would likely meet your needs. Electric longboards and electric unicycles are also worth considering, and I have seen a couple of those around my city, but the e-scooters and e-bikes have dominated due to their capacities and how easy they are to ride.

    I have two problems with EVs: - I believe they're more immoral than ICE vehicles. They're existence displaces batteries for hybrids (yes I did the math) - They're not practical for me for my use scenario. I have kids.

      I'd love to see your math on how my 50 pound electric scooter is more immoral than a 2 ton ICE car. Also I don't see your point about kids.
