It's not that the risk is too great for EVs. But rather - the company is better able to put out fires caused by gasoline, rather than EV, hydrogen, or hybrids. In addition, the ship that sank had both EVs and gas-powered vehicles on board, and the cause of the fire that sank it was not determined to be EVs, specifically.

I have no problem with those who want to buy experimental cars -- I just have a problem with freedom loving people being forced to subsidize those purchases -- and making poorer people poorer.
