Just out of curiosity, is there an increased danger for first responders when dealing with an electric vehicle that's been in an accident?
There is. First responders need to know where the emergency disconnect is for the high voltage battery. I make a point of knowing where mine are in each of my vehicles. There is information published for first responders. If they do catch fire they are hard to put out but EV's have been notably safe as far as fires go. Nissan leafs have been in house fires and although the car is a burned out shell the battery is recoverable and sellable .
