"On last week’s incident, [the] driver... noticed smoke billowing from the undercarriage of the vehicle. Thankfully, she was able to pull off the side of the road and exit the vehicle safely, but that fire just continued to grow and ended up actually burning through the hood," he said.
In mid-January in Massachusetts, the Wakefield Fire Department outside of Boston said "more than 20,000 gallons of water were used" to extinguish a fire involving a Tesla vehicle that crashed along Interstate-95.
What's going to happen when we have a water shortage 🙄
Water on lithium 🤔
elonmusk how can this be fixed?
I wonder how a firefighter might compare them to the old Volkswagen vans...
Ya but the politicians can control the peasants with electric cars .
Keep driving gas vehicles
Hey, let’s all get electric cars
How long does it take in Canada though?
I hope fire departments get more water because I can’t wait for my preordered Cybertruck to be built and delivered!!!
Trash headline again. elonmusk foxbuisness Why do media get away with saying this when they should say 'firefighters warn that EV fires are.....'. Why put Tesla when there are multiple brands of EVs?
There’s no indication of how frequently these happen and cause… pretty poor journalism.
What’s with the tesla bashing, all of a sudden?
FOX triggering the Elongelicals tonight.
elonmusk whats this nightmare I'm reading about, in our future..
Waiting for Elon to find this tweet
Glad I don't own one. Another bug to work out besides range anxiety.
Lol ..
B… Bb… But climate change.
No kidding, the Lefties only see the cool EV vehicle, not seeing the bigger picture of all that's needed or destroyed to make one car. These fires are extremely bad for the environment, this is just one of the downsides. Everything isn't greener on the other side of the fence. 🤡
The democrats and bill gates will be happy this should cut down on survivors and decrease the surplus population.
And they're double plus good for the environment
Still keeping my Model 3 Performance and buying the Cybertruck the day my reservation is called!!
Water is becoming increasingly precious. And Teslas are pouring out of California.
Just keep a couple of these bad boys on call...
More and more of this will occur.
The good news is that electric vehicles will be mandated by the Dems and GAE within 10 years. Yay for progress 😊
pittman_nairobi 💡💡💡💡💡💡💡💡💡 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇 How about making LARGE vehicle size flame blankets, to smother flames?
This ferry company has banned EVs because they're dangerous. The notion of powering EVs with coal powered generators is idiotic, but that's another story. Wait until one of Inslee's fictional EV ferries catches on fire and wipes out some of his serfs.
The fireman have to work for hours? That has to cut into their sleeping/eating time.
elonmusk
Only Teslas? Is this another Elon hit piece?
On the back burner? Do better Fox29, you are a segment of a news network that tries on some level to tell some facts…no one, by the way, enjoys your entertainment segments…Hank, Bill and Jenfred need to go…
It hard to put garbage fires out
Suddenly, only Tesla electrical cars are problems? Meanwhile a weak president, who is compromised by the very country that recently went balloon flying over all of our strategic military sites…putting his illegal possession of classified information by anyone but a sitting prez?
😂
Biden says he wants to help the small business owners, but he really doesn't. Listen to this
Can you use water on those types of fires?
Are they using the word “Tesla” rather the the generic term “EV”?
