Australia and Canada have a lot in common. One thing is large stretches of wilderness that almost all highways in both countries pass through. Hundreds of kilometers between cities. Limited cell service. A lot of nothing.
You are lucky to find a gas station let alone a EV charging facility. And is the EV charging station is even operational? Vandalism. Poor maintenance.
