Another reason to hold off on EVs

 

Bob Hoge at RedState reports:

Oops, Electric Vehicles Are Exploding
After Water Damage from Hurricane Ian

President Joe Biden, California Governor Gavin Newsom and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg all want you to buy electric vehicles in the future, with Newsom even aiming to ban gas-powered cars by 2035. Just be prepared that your new automobile might explode if the battery gets too wet.

Jimmy Patronis, Florida’s Chief Financial Officer & State Fire Marshal, tweeted Thursday:

There’s a ton of EVs disabled from Ian. As those batteries corrode, fires start. That’s a new challenge that our firefighters haven’t faced before. At least on this kind of scale.
