Electric car charging station - Germany
 
This is the reason why some underground car parks here in Germany don't allow electric powered vehicles into their premises.

What you see in this video is an electric car at a charging station with a shorting cell setting off all the rest. It's a chain reaction from the
first to the fiery end of the car. Bet they eventually lost all the cars in that charging line.

Note the time it took to destroy 3 cars, 1.15 minutes. The first car was destroyed in about 38 seconds. The fire cannot be extinguished with
water.

No fire department will approach a burning battery-powered car because of the toxic gasses produced during the fire. No recycling place
will take the car's remains because of the toxic chemicals the batteries contain.

Maybe we should slow down our rush to replace existing sources of power until we find a safe, sustainable alternative fuel that doesn't cost the earth.

Until then maybe those that aren't working on the alternatives will have to use what is currently available. ?!?!?
