“”a work vehicle will be built on a platform where a battery can be, inserted and extracted and switched in and out. 1 vehicle, 3 batteries.””

I thought about that also. They can envision the big trucks, the 18 wheelers. An EV big truck would drive 100 miles, pull into the battery station, the large battery behind the cab would be changed out for a fully charged battery, and the truck would drive another 100 miles.* (no charging time necessary). Two problems, at least. For home use, big pickup trucks, big SUV - if you have 3 battery packs, is the fire danger multiplied by 3?

*I do not like this idea, I was just trying to think like a liberal. I have a headache now.

Gasoline, gas stations used to have that fear. Hollywood still loves the gas station exploding.

Just as with gasoline, we’ll slowly learn how to control these batteries. There may be a few casualties. But we’ll get it.

How many traffic deaths justify cars now?
How many EV deaths are allowable?
