Two EVs collide. Look in the sky for shrapnel at about 39 seconds in.

#4 When an electric car is in an accident and the battery pack splits open you will have battery shrapnel flying everywhere.
The batteries are a bit bigger then double AA ones and if you get hit by one you will either be dead or badly wounded.

In the video in the story just look at the blowtorch and explosions!

A driver high on marijuana crashed a Tesla into an apartment building late Tuesday night, sending hundreds of small batteries flying, police said. Two of the batteries shot through apartment windows. One landed in a resident’s lap. The other came to rest on a bed - and set the sheets on fire.
