Burning lithium batteries are explosive, toxic and released heavy metals.
There’s a limited supply of the materials for EVs and e-bikes but a huge value in replacing gas cars with these vehicles.
Burning these huge batteries harms people breathing the air in the area.
hey what if we used trains with overhead wire instead? they're better in basically every way, especially someplace relatively flat like vegas.
Yeah I absolutely love the video made by some guy, I forget his name, but it basically lambasted the "Tesla tunnel" in Vegas because for the same amount of money or even less they could have built an actual Subway train.
over a longer distance with more capacity more safety less maintenance cost and probably prettier.
Probably "Adam Something"
Yep that's the one.
name a media person born after 1975who doesn't know what his cock tastes like, and they have made a version of that video.
Yeah, it'd be better just to cease their purchase and let them sit, completely useless. A burnt car gets an insurance payout. What about throwing those giant stickers on the windshield that don't peel off without ripping and leave a ridiculous mess? There was a Russian YouTube channel where people would do that to people driving on sidewalks.
Bonus money and business for car detailers? Lol
I would agree normally, but at a larger scale, it would cost insurance more to replace everything leading to higher rates and possibly refusal of insurance due to the risk associated.
Their rates are already skyrocketing
I read that in snowcrash, didn't know it was a real thing.
I thought Teslas (or maybe just the Cyber truck?) wasn't insurable. I thought that was the whole reason Tesla has to offer car insurance, because regular insurers won't cover them.
Yeah, maybe. I didn't know that was a thing, but I believe it
Waaah, waaaah, waaah...!
More chemicals than a SpaceX launch?
We can be concerned about harm of all scales, not only there greatest harms.
And it's priorities like that is how we end up with paper straws and electric cars grinding up more microplastics from their tires that we inhale.
Is this fucking concern trolling?
Fair point
