@snacks @TheDolphinsWereRight
There's congestion which is a stuffed up nose, as with hay fever, and there's congestion which is 21 vehicles on a piece of road with capacity* for 20.

In context of EVs the latter would seem the more obvious to most of us in English.

(*It is more complex than that, of course, but a relative shortage of usable slots between and for vehicles is the essence)
