"U.S. fire departments responded to an estimated average of 152,300 automobile fires per year in 2006-2010. These fires caused an average of 209 civilian deaths, 764 civilian injuries, and $536 million in direct property damage."
Yet this isn't reported as news. What is reported as "news" is that there was one single fire in a Tesla car, despite the fact that gasmobiles are several times more likely to have a car fire than a Tesla car.
Sigh. Sometimes it seems the Tesla haters are actually winning their propaganda campaign.
