I must admit when taking my wife to hospital during colvid so had to sit in the car in car park, I was a little perturbed by the number of cars sitting there with an engine running, I just wrapped up warm, and I have seen reports of people getting upset due to pets left in cars in the sun, we do tend to forget the EV can have a heater or cooler running without any large liquid fuel motor running, which must be an advantage.
How long the heat pump can be used to heat or cool the car I don't know? Cars are not double glazed, and are constructed like a green house, so we do need a large energy transfer to keep them warm/cool.
I will park my car there to load/unload as it is next to entrance of building I am working in, but will make sure one bay is free. And I know the Lady with an EV will come and move it off the charging bay once charged. But one wonders why any one would rant and rave at a stranger, even if one does not like what they are doing. Just not British hay what!

I have seen the problems, the people coming off the train don't get to cars before the people getting on the train leave their cars, only 2 re-charge spaces, and the train takes 2 hours to return so ideal place for people to stop to re-charge, there is some thing to do while they wait.There's a similar one doing the rounds, where its a car park attendant trying to move a Tesla off an EV charging spot
