Too bad this Tesla was not being driven in Florida. The driver could drive straight into a canal to quench the lithium fire.
Well, another Tesla goes up in smoke.

I was going to make a joke about taking the car to a swimming pool and tossing it in. But I see that this is pretty much what they ended up doing. Unbelievable.

Why bother even trying to put it out? Just keep it from spreading like they do some buildings.

How much damage to the environment did it caused!
Surely a lot of global heat!

Can you imagine if Freepers posted every time a gas-powered car burst into flames? You’d have to scroll through page after page to find a story about Trump or Biden! 39,000 deaths in gas-powered cars! (I’m going to infer the guy in the Tesla didn’t even die, since there is no mention of it.)
The lesson here isn’t that people shouldn’t drive Teslas; it’s that highway departments should have a few trucks with foam.

Do ICE cars burst into flames without a collision? Do you have the pics?

California is banning diesel trucks. All of the big rig semis will be electric. Will be interesting when one bursts into flames on the Golden Gate Bridge, Bay Bridge or in the Caldecott Tunnel

“Do ICE cars burst into flames without a collision?”
Yes but the ratio of incidents given ICE cars outnumber EVs by an astronomical number isn’t even close.
Not reported much but during the last hurricane EVs were swamped in salt water and many subsequently burst into flames......apparently Teslas dont like sea water and Elons engineering and R&D folks missed that little problem.
