For Myself E-Scooters Are Dangerous Enough On The Pavement,

but now more and more house fires are caused by the battery packs igniting when indoors, 

warnings in the UK have been given out by many fire brigades, London, Cambridgeshire and Devon & Somerset to name just a few, but now it gets worse, even your pets can start a fire using a battery pack!

in this video released by the US Tulsa Fire Department it shows the moment an unsupervised dog started a house fire by chewing on a lithium battery pack, I should mention that the canine perpetrator as well as other dogs and a cat that were napping nearby all escaped through a dog door and were not harmed, but the fire caused significant fire to the house, a Tulsa Fire Department spokesperson commented that despite the significant damage caused by the fire, things could have been much worse if there were people sleeping inside, or if there was no way for the poor animals to escape “When this energy is released uncontrollably, it can generate heat, produce flammable and toxic gases and even lead to explosions,” the fire department’s Andy Little said about the energy in deceptively compact lithium batteries. “It is crucial that you adhere to manufacturer guidelines when using lithium-ion batteries, only using approved chargers and storing them out of reach of children and pets.” Just when you thought things could not be worse for the move to all EV vehicles and the net zero carbon goal.
