It's quite an incedniary subject Doug....................(Ouch).
EV zealots downplay it, but EV doubters will always highlight these huge losses. There are a few layers to this, and I do feel that the political agenda in the media underplays or ignores the more frequent EV fires and explosions. There is plenty of phone footage on You Tube showing catastrophic gassing and blow outs, and the only people who have a realistic view of EV fires are the emergency services.
Going back to the latest ship based loss, you would think that sufficent precautions were applied to stop a total loss, and how long will insurance companies cover such obvious risk?
I will never have an EV, and so I can just be an interested observer, as all this unfolds.
