No one forgets to charge their phone. Except you.

Wrong. I also forget to turn it on.

Goodness me. I hope you remember to look where you're going.

It's where I've been that concerns me more

Are the police involved?

But how can you avoid hazards coming up if you're looking backwards?

You can have a passenger shouting, "left a bit, right a bit" a la Golden Shot (you're too young to remember. )

However, I do believe that if you're the kind of person who forgets to charge their mobile phone, you probably shouldn't be allowed out unsupervised.

Even more important for you to look forwards whilst driving

Exactly but there's little true concern amidst the hype.
It's all energy conversion and it has to come from a fuel of some sort.

Not just generating (although I suppose there will be a lot of petrol and diesel to burn . . . ), it's the distribution too. I'd hazard a guess that an entire cul d sac plugging in cars to charge wouldn't be too good for the distribution network.
