“gas vehicles are more likely to catch fire than electric vehicles” considering gas has been on the road a lot longer, yeah the numbers bear that out.
Those are interesting numbers. I wish there was more detail. For example, I'd hate to diss on buying gas cars made in the past 20 or so years if most of the 1,529 gas car fires are from the 40 years or older gas cars still on the road. The same for dissing buying a new EV if most of the 25 EV fires are from early model Teslas and Chevy Bolts.
The environmental damage for EV fires is massively more Than for gas cars. An EV fire is an extreme toxic chemical fire.
If I were rich I would start lawsuits based on the environmental damage.
““I was about to go home, take the family and the kids, and go to a party,” he said.”
What an IDIOT, to expose his kids to the risks of an EV. Kids are better off with drunk driving them around.
There will be many fires where the family is burned to death in these electric fire traps.
