When is the farce of electric vehicles gonna end?
This is the 2nd time I’ve been involved in a major highway closure because of ONE disabled electric vehicle. It’s ridiculous!!!

Imagine what it would be like if there were millions of them on the road. Every highway would be closed most of the time because all it takes is one vehicle to flare up.

I did not know that there were already electric big rigs on our highways. I wonder if they are government owned such as USPS .

To: Freee-dame
The government subsidized and funded quite a few private trucking company ventures for testing. A few self driving trucks also,

Here in northern CA Pepsi Co has a bunch of Tesla big rigs on the roads. I’ve also seen Frito lay trucks which of course is part of Pepsi co.

Trucks can’t self-drive they’ll RUN AWAY

This is just an overreaction by fire fighters to a little harmless smoke.
Hydrogen cyanide
Hydrogen fluoride
Hydrogen chloride
Carbon monoxide
Sulfur dioxide
Methane
Tesla wants us to believe that EVs are perfectly safe. Why would they lie to us?

Not to mention most fire depts solution to electric car fires is to let them burn themselves out. Awesome when it occurs on a major highway.
