    Well, except for the fact that lithium fires don’t go out. Like, you have to bury the entire vehicle in water to starve it from oxygen so that the fire will stop burning, and if you take it out of the water, then it will start burning again.

    Like, don’t get me wrong. I’m very pro electric vehicle, but the quality of the fire matters just as much as the quantity of the fire.

      In my country, a gas (actual gas) trailer exploded following a crash, years ago. It destroyed a bridge. That took longer than 40 hours to solve.
