Yup.

What do people do, who (1) have to drive to work, and (2) live in apartment complexes that don't have chargers for everyone?

There's a reason why the average income of those who buy electric vehicles, is so high. It's the future, no doubt (I own a lot of Tesla and lithium stocks), but it's not the immediate future. Not even close. We can't generate enough electricity for our needs NOW, which is why they're talking about blackouts.

Batteries don't generate electricity, they store electricity that's been generated elsewhere. Wind and solar aren't going to come close to cutting it.

Not to mention those who actually drive for a living, Field Service, Deliveries, Truck Drivers, Contractors, and Sales Folks as a few examples.
