      True.

      I just thought of a potential partial solution:
      There could be companies that rent spaces in parking lots (with charging) specifically for automated cars, located just outside cities and commercial/industrial areas. Might even be useful to people in apartments or otherwise without a place to charge at home.

      These would be closer to where the car needs to go later than all the way back home, and ideally on lower traffic routes.
