A new crash recently in Alabama, but a reminder to something that we all know. Burning Teslas are far more difficult to extinguish than any other car.

Of course, now you need to melt the water, without boiling it since the water is contaminated, too able to pump it away for remediation. It’s a logistical nightmare.

But you realize that just because the water is frozen doesn’t mean the exothermic reaction won’t happen…. Yeah?

Edit for your edit, yeah you clearly don’t if you seriously think water freezes top down that’s not a body of water…… and ice would stop a self igniting/oxidizing exothermic reaction….

All I hear you saying is your admission that this method works to put the fire out.

Where did I say it wouldn’t? Please point it out for the rest of the class yeah?

Cool, then all your other objections are just quibbling about the details.

Buddy seems to think this is a catch all solution instead of for incredibly specific situations.

So yeah… what else would it be about except for the details….?

You also came at me arguing details, although misguided and wrong… the irony lmfao.
