Current Events > There's a new Tesla Supercharger going up in a dumpster fire, people gonna die.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Not too far from where I work.

I live in southwest Michigan and theres an old charging station nearby which is a nice location but its slow. Theyre putting up a new station planned to open in the next few months but it is literally in a place where people get robbed and murdered regularly (not exaggerating) it is like walking down certain streets in Chicago, you just dont. Like...Im a minority and I dont stop at the area this new Supercharger is going up in my wifes few years old SUV, let alone my M3.

I tagged Elon to hope someone will make a change but theyre seriously risking peoples safety putting this thing up in Benton Harbor. Its not even in a convenient spot from the main roads, either.

Theres a midwest chain Meijer that most stations go up near in MI and there are two stores only a few miles from this spot. Why they cant put them there is odd, but Id rather not have a new station at all vs risk someones safety.

Just crazy they are even considering this. There are no shops or bathrooms, etc. like most Superchargers have nearby, either. Weird.
