It often feels like EV fires make major headlines while ICE vehicle fires go under reported despite being order of magnitude more likely and common. Nice to see an ICE vehicle fire actually making media headlines for a change.

    Turns out, when a big tank of gasoline is set on fire, it’s deadly.

    That has absolutely zero to do with the car which is not a car but a truck being ICE.

      Read carefully.

      …among all highway vehicles…

      That paragraph is about both trucks and cars. The average car has what, a 12 gallon tank of gasoline? That’s an incredible amount of flammable liquid.

      What are you on about that electric cars have to be more dangerous for you? Are you heavily invested in an oil company or something?
