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 .

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?

Can’t we blame this on Trump somehow?

Yes, I heard reports this morning. Around 6:20 a.m. Pacific they closed I-80 both ways to commercial traffic. Last report is they are still letting non-commercial traffic through. Wonder if this will be a repeat of the I-40 fire a couple of weeks ago that closed the freeway for several days.

Actually, there may be more than one event underway.

Nevada: I80 WESTBOUND AT CALIFORNIA/NEVADA BORDER CLOSED TO COMMERCIAL VEHICLES /FIND ALTERNATE ROUTE

Near Emigrant, west of Truckee, in addition or because of the truck, there is a fire at SR-20.

This Caltrans site is good, go to QuickMap options to select what you want to see. https://quickmap.dot.ca.gov/

For CalTrans cameras, this is better as they are live video: https://cwwp2.dot.ca.gov/vm/iframemap.htm

Nevada: https://www.nvroads.com/map

It follows, that Electric Vehicles will be banned from all national forests and parks . . . and from wooden docks and piers . . . and from garages . . . and no closer than 100 yards to any pile of 20 or more leaves.

Also, Electric Vehicles will be banned from all highways during rush hour.

These toxic clouds will eventually become a daily occurrence on LA freeways as EV vehicles become more common in that venue.

And not only that. That route is a huge tinderbox just waiting for a spark to start another massive wild fire.
