    Default EV car news

    If insurance companies would band together and stop issuing policies for EV's people would stop buying them.

    Data from the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board shows that there are approximately 25 fires for every 100,000 EVs sold. That’s in comparison to are approximately 1,530 fires for every 100,000 gas-powered vehicles sold.

    ^^^Thats from the same article you linked to.
    Some states have “Shall insure” or “Must insure” laws on the books when it comes to legal motorized vehicles.

    EV fires are often near impossible to extinguish though.

    Not implying the info is correct or not but the U.S. National Trans Safety Board sounds like a taxpayer/gov't organization too. They're going to tell you what they want you to believe. Perhaps they couldn't keep the EV fires secret?

    I actually support the concept of EV's but not the way they exist now nor with the gov't force and propaganda.

    After a LOT of changes and improvements I would like to see EV's offered as an option, not a requirement.
