Swapping battery stations, not autonomous driving, keep large fleets moving during outages. When a 10-minute grid loss stalls a 10,000-vehicle fleet, 63% run out of charge, while pre-planned swapping maintains 96% of trips. Outage Scenario and the Case for Swapping In a recent pilot I observed in the Bay
