A lengthy queue at an electric vehicle charging hub in Gundagai on Good Friday has given a glimpse into Australia’s EV future “unless we get some urgent planning underway”.

Matthew Bailes, who was driving from Melbourne to Sydney in his Tesla, snapped a photo of the situation.

“It was a 15 minute wait,” he told Tony Jones, filling in for Neil Mitchell.
