Fuel is very pressurized coming out of the fuel tank pump, and ๐ท๐ฆ๐ณ๐บ ๐ท๐ฆ๐ณ๐บ pressurized by the time it gets to the injector rail. When it comes out it will be atomized, and to a stoichiometric mist EVERYTHING is an ignition source.
And yet we rarely have uncontrollable ICE fires despite an overwhelming heavy use but a larger portion of EVs ends up dunked in water tanks for days because of lack of training. FFS ๐คฆโโ๏ธ realty is lost on you people.
Cool, evs are still dangerous and you can't stop that fire. At least the gas will explode and can be dealt with unlike batteries. I never once said gas is not a danger, but that EVs pose a worse threat WHEN they fail because of the extreme heat or floods etc...
Watch the news once more and more of these time bombs are on the road. It's only going to happen more and more especially once they start sitting around in junkyards and people leave them in their driveways to rot.
