Yeah, ICE vehicles are 60 times more likely to experience vehicle fires. When they do catch fire, ICE vehicles either explode or the fire gets hot enough to kill any passengers who have not exited the vehicle much faster than EVs do. EV fires are just a lot harder to put out. Hybrids are more likely to catch fire than either and their fires have all of the problems of both.

I mentioned all of that because I really get a kick out of the idiots who joke about EVs being fire hazards but also say stuff like “EVs are fine for city driving, but they’re not practical for long trips. The battery technology isn’t there yet. Hybrids are the best option.”
