Recall there were reports of Electric busses catching fire, fueled by their lithium batteries. The list is growing, now with a Connecticut town called Hamden. Click Here

I'd feel sorry for folks in that state. Their governor, Ned Lamont has announced a new State Law that requires Connecticut to transfer all State vehicles to electrical power. In March this year Senator Chris Murphy was touting the addition of 22 new electric busses, bringing the state's total to 32 elec. busses

Other nations are also suffering from those fires in electric busses:

Guangxi-China five busses, Paris-France two busses, Hanover-Germany five busses and two hybrids, Stuttgart-Germany destroying 25 buses. Click Here Click Here

Here's another in China, where 50 passengers were running off of the bus, and within a few minutes the whole thing exploded, and devastated the whole vehicle.

In April 2022 this fire occurred in Paris:

How about the Electric busses in China. One bursts into flames, and then destroying the one's parked close by. 1-1/2 min video. And similar fires have destroyed two busses in Paris.
