When a charging station on a street side public parking space is broken, the parking space is for ... care to guess? (lemmy.ca)

In one Canadian town, the issue is whether the parking space becomes a space for anyone, or whether it is reserved for a charger technician. No rule on this is written and one has to guess. What do you think?

German here: All public charging stations are labeled as: free parking during charging. That means if the charger is broken technically no one is allowed to park there.

I see no reason why the parking space should be left unused. The whole purpose is to charge, not to remove parking spaces and be a nuisance.

That is true. I only mentioned the regulatory truth. And i think if you park an EV there nobody would give you a ticket.
