      Yup, let's stake all our future transportation on that.

          That's amazing. Lightening er, EVs can strike twice. Much like with crashing a couple of 737 Max aircraft, when an "accident" strikes twice - may have to pay some attention to this.

            Fires involving petroleum are almost completely unheard of, of course, and on the extremely rare occasions they do occur, are typically put out within minutes.

            I was only joking

              Prithee, when was the last time a car carrier burned and sunk due to carrying petrol powered vehicles?

                Probably just after the last time a grown man used the word ‘prithee’

                  The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                        It happened again:

                        The crew of a cargo ship carrying 3,000 vehicles to Mexico, including 800 electric vehicles, abandoned ship after they could not control a fire aboard the vessel in waters off Alaska’s Aleutian island chain.

                        A large plume of smoke was initially seen at the ship’s stern coming from the deck loaded with electric vehicles Tuesday, according to U.S. Coast Guard photos and a Wednesday statement from the ship’s management company, London-based Zodiac Maritime.
