And the CO2 and other stuff when they catch fire :-)

Apparently some EU countries have special mobile tanks to
dump an entire Tesla car into and flood it, because those
Lithium batteries are sods to put out after a vehicle fire.

water of course makes it worse.


And a full tank of petrol is safe as houses? ;-)


Having had a full tank of petrol fall off a car (rust around the tank) I
don't think its very dangerous.
I left the car with the tank under it still attached by the fuel line to
phone the AA.
When I got back someone had chucked three fag ends in the petrol on the
ground.
