New protocols are in place for Jacksonville firefighters facing another challenge on the roads and in homes. Electric car fires are presenting new dangers for first responders

It’s important to point out that electric vehicle fires are significantly lower statistically then other car fires, with on average only 25 fires per 100 thousand electric vehicles.

Prosswimmer says Jacksonville firefighters are following new protocols just in case an electric car catches fire on the road, or in a garage. Troopers say a Central Florida man recently lost his life along State road 417 after crashing his speeding Tesla, which erupted in flames and burned for slowly along the side of the road.

It results in a series of fires, one right after another, all the electric batteries cells inside the battery “these emit a whole another kind of smoke because of the chemicals it’s a very toxic smoke.”
