Stopping every 2 hours is nuts. 4 hours sure ok. I regularly drive long distances for work and if it's 6 hours or less I'm going to try to make it without stopping at all.
You're harming yourself doing this. First, sitting for long periods of time isn't good, and getting up and stretching every 2 hours is recommended. This applies to office work just as much as driving. Second, urination typically happens every 3-4 hours, and if you're not, then you're likely dehydrated or have something else going wrong.
If you really, really want to do this, well OK, but we shouldn't put the whole EV transition on hold just to let you do this.
Yeah nothing's going to stop me and I do far worse things for my health. You're right though.
And yeah I was just commenting on the two hour thing which I thought seemed silly. Nothing to do with the original topic of EVs.
