If anything ICE should be definitely banned from being parked in closed areas or being transported on boats.

Claiming EVs are subsided because they aint good while Oil has been subsided sense the 1830s and they still haven't managed to make them more then 25-30% effective that if anything is a sham. How them oils wells doing for ya in the US? Still leaking enormous amount of methane, benzine and other dangerous chemicals out in the environment because guess what oil companies couldn't care less about plugging those damn things properly. Or remember that single gallon of oil can contaminate as much one million gallons of water, hows the BP oil spill going over there? But thats alright to do just so you can fuel up your car in less then one minute at the gas station.

You are claiming EVs are in their infancy damn straight they are and yet they are beating ICE vehicles on a daily basis in many areas imagine if EVs had investing in them as much as ice when they first back in the in 1800s imagine where we would be then. But no we chose the oil way unfortunate.

And get this firemen have been putting our fires on ICEs sense they came thats about about 200 years of fire fighting ICE fires, i am sure our fire departments will figure out a faster way to put out battery fires in the very near future if they haven't already.

Anyone with a decent brain in their head understands this. You are comparing a product thats been around sense our industrial revolution basicly to something that what Tesla in 2008 with their roadster started putting out and now what only 15e years later we are here imagine if all the other automotive companies would have taken EVs seriously 2008 where we would be in comparison to today.

So stop the blatant bashing on EVs its getting tiresome.
That has been debunked. When you correct for age and how ICE is used by consumers, the fire risk is similar. The only thing not similar is the catastrophic nature of EV fires. That nature allowed them to destroy 1,500 ! cars in a UK airport parking garage. And yes, they say an ICE started the fire, but when it spread to the EV's, it became uncontainable. It is why more and more parking garages are resorting to banning EV's from parking in them. Well, the fire risk and the weight, several EV pickups actually exceed current pound per foot design ratings of said parking garages.
