Gas-powered cars are thirty-five times more likely to catch fire. What makes EV fires such the internet hysteria (and I do use the word “hysteria”) is that they are very difficult to put out. But what portion of those 35 gas fires result in a massive fireball? More than one?
yeah but generally they catch fire on the road because of overheating, or gettign say sod on the exhaust pipes which dries, then catches fire etc- - gas cars i mean-
ev cars catch fire in garages or next to houses where flames spread- a lot of battery operated things can erupt inside the home too or garage-
i just wouldn’t want to have to charge a car in my garage or outside the garage next to the house- every evening- bad enough that rechargeable things like phones laptops etc have to be charged-
