I guess car ferries are a doomed business once everyone goes electric.

They have lots of ferries up there and they also have boats that move people and vehicles from point-to-point due to the geography. If a Tesla lights up on one of those boats...I wonder what will happen?

What about all the batteries on the ocean floor? Aren’t they an environmental hazard?

This is only the beginning. EV’s will be prohibited from parking in parking garages. They will be prohibited from parking in garages even attached to single family homes because of the risk of setting the entire neighborhood on fire. The list will grow and make these cars impractical for ownership.

The fires can not only be impossible to extinguish but also release terribly toxic gases into the air when burning. So much for the “green” solution.

Electric buses have ignited and could burn up all passengers inside.

Lithium Ion batteries aboard airliners could start fires that could cause airline crashes that kill everyone aboard.

Just have to change out the ferry fleet. Huge, fireproof electric ferries.

80% of new cars sold in Norway last year. Suckers.

And these are people take risk assessment seriously, not for the ‘green’, homo or other social agenda.

They have it all wrong. We need to make the ferries fully electric so they have a fighting chance against the cars. Greta said so.

Norway generates a lot of electricity so they have been promoting EV’s.

That has got to be a financial hit for the ferry company to prohibit EV’s.

How about parking garages under office, hotel, residential high rise buildings? Just a matter of time before a e-vehicle fire burns one to the ground.

Have they and when will they be banned from US ferries? What about shipping to and from Hawaii and elsewhere overseas?
