“174,000 is 476 vehicle fires per day all year long”
With close to 300,000,000 ICE vehicles
operating on America’s roads, the number
you quote is a pretty low percentage.
The majority of ICE vehicle fires are
caused from vehicle crashes and an
exploding battery, or direct shorting
and sparks catching fuel leaks on fire.

Where do you dispose of 50,000 deadly polluting EVs?

Then there was the guy in Finland who needed a new battery for his Tesla.
When he learned it would cost $25,000, he set the car on fire and posted it on YouTube.
The video went viral, so the Finnish man probably made a tidy sum.

Wonder if the mechanic couldn’t stop from saying “engine’s flooded” and then laughed?

“this is not about EVs
it is about control”
Exactly. Good reason to be very suspicious of EV fluffers on FR.
To: Revel
Hey, being an EV fluffer is hard work. Got to prop up your narrative however you can.
To: doorgunner69
EV propagandists don’t have facts on their side. So what can they do? Lie. They claim CO2 is a pollutant. Lie. They say humans are causing global warming. Lie. They say EVs are zero emissions. Lie. They say EVs are less taxing on the environment (whatever that means). Lie. They say so-called “renewable energy” doesn’t pollute. Lie. Etc.

Thanks for the mention. I think folks have a pretty good
beef here.
I’ll be glad when they have perfected the sodium chloride
replacement for Lithium.

Somewhere on this thread I linked a place where the
numbers of fires per 100,000 sold vehicles was provided.
That took care of the lopsided numbers.

Fuel leaks and the like are rather spontaneous also.

"Can you starve an EV fire of oxygen that way"
The lithium chemistry, with H2O, provides it's own O2. Ambient O2 is irrelevant.

Be careful of online sources for “facts.” Be cautious regarding information, in this case about EVs, if the source is an EV friendly group. It’s awfully easy for a zealot to skew website information in a way that pleases them.

I predicted this the first time I saw the surge going through towns. I’m not sure I’d want to wait around INSIDE an EV waiting for assistance. Bzzztttt….
