California has been consistent with its push to gets its residents to buy electric car, but the number of recharging spots, unfortunately, is not matching up with the number of green car drivers, reported The New York Times.

While electric cars are making American states greener, the shortage of car recharging plugs is making some Americans meaner, according to The Seattle Times.

Half of the country's electric car owners reside in California, The Daily Mail noted. But the state's push for more electric cars has lead to an insufficient number of car charging stations.

Electric car driver Don Han reported an incident when he plugged his electric car in to charge this summer at a public charging station near Silicon Valley and another drove up and pulled the charger out of his car, according to The New York Times. 

Han told The New York Times, "I said, 'Hey Buddy, what do you think you're doing?' And he said, 'Well, your car is done charging,' and 'after saying a couple of curse words,'" Han told the driver that his car was not done charging.

Electric car owners are unplugging each others cars, cursing at each other, and making side deals for car charging spots, noted The Seattle Times.

Maureen Blanc, director of Charge Across Town, a nonprofit that pushes the spread of electric car ownership said that tensions are "growing and growing" over the deficit of available car chargers, The New York Times reported.

Blanc drives an electric BMW and said that she got into an argument with a Tesla car driver over a car charging outlet. She said, "It's high time for somebody to tackle the electric-vehicle etiquette problem."

One Google computer manager created and sold 9,000 electric vehicle charging packs for $15.00 each, according to The Seattle Times. The packs are a short term fix to a long term solution that will increase as more drivers opt to buy green electric cars.

California Governor Jerry Brown wants a long-term solution. He pledged to increase the number of charging stations. Brown signed a bill into law last week that created incentives for utilities to install more electric car charging stations so that more drivers will buy green cars, according to the Los Angeles Times.

California State Senate leader Kevin de Leon of Los Angeles predicted that "Charging stations will be as ubiquitous as gas stations are."
