Well yes, but it's also a shill media moving fast to deflect a high-profile accident.

Looks like a bomb went off, those batteries contain a helluva lot of energy..crazy!
Here's a little compilation video of a few Tesla fires.
ugetube.com...
The way the flames are shooting out the side is more like a blowtorch than a typical flame.
I have had lithium polymer battery fires, pretty intense..don't remember ever seeing one that blew up though. I used to build and race/compete with radio controlled cars.
I remember one time, we were doing a demo for the local cub scout troop. Things going great, kids loving the fast cars..50-60 mph, then while racing around, my car starts smoking, within 2 seconds it's like fireworks..lol, kids really loved that display. Sure melted down the car though, no putting that out.
I was an early adapter of converting 1/8th scale nitro cars to electric back in 2006. We used to "go nuclear" all the time at the RC tracks until major manufacturers finally figured out how to stabilize the power draw from ESCs and the LIPO batteries stabilized. Literally same tech in Teslas. You'd see that smoke start and then the flame....by then it is too late! Nothing like that burnt electronics smell.
Ha..nice, me too, very much around that time. We did 1/8 buggys, did a few Revo's, also did a 1/6th 2 spd OFNA car as well..that one was hard to drive, so much power.
My user name goes way back to the monster trucks, I loved building modified Clodbusters, was running them on nmh 14.4 v at that time, with 550 motors..blew up lots of gearboxes, burnt through brushes, that was one of the 1st high voltage dual motor esc, but no brakes..lol..thank god when lipo, and brushless became obtainable. I really learned a lot from those days of tinkering/scratchbuilding.

It looks like it's been hit with some sort of artillery, This reminds me of when LPG was used and people were stuck in cars and burning to death.The new tech will have teething pains, but this is something new will it require pulling the cars off the road to have them checked .www.bitchute.com...
