I take it you don't live in the UK. At least a third of the population already lives in accommodation that does not include any off road parking. They haven't carelessly moved there knowing that they wouldn't not have somewhere to charge an electric car and they certainly will not be able to afford to move just to be able to park the car off the road so they can park it.

And 'other forms of transportation' are not 'better regardless', merely better for some limited purposes.
