We all called it tar, assuming it was connected to high tar cigarettes. But maybe it's something else. Wiki says it's 'glandular trichomes'. Hairs under the leaf secrete black sticky stuff which functions as an insect trap. After a day of having your arms brushed by the hairs, it looks like a road surface has been laid on your arm. But maybe the tar which medics talk about is the residue of burnt nicotine.

Up to 1200 cars destroyed.

Got to love the unchecked rumours on Twitter of an EV fire whilst charging despite it being the wrong carpark for EV chargers.

Either way, what a waste, having to build or source 1,200 new ones.

And on here… 😳

I guess it could still be an EV car, just one that was not sat on a charger.

Something something end the War on Motorists...

EV claim was repeated on Sky news

EV batteries can't melt steel beams.

Coincidentally there was an article on BBC news this morning about the high insurance premiums for EVs.

Have you seen a Lithium fire?

Have you seen a Lithium fire?

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Lithium fire off the shoulder of Luton airport.

Love that film. The Running Man 👌

Some of Van Damme's best work.

.all those moments will be lost in time, like tears in Spain... Time to fly.

It’ll be an e-scooter in a boot.

in a frunk surely...

E-bike surely - must be a cyclist's fault.

Somewhere in the car park - happy to meet you halfway on this one.

In all seriousness, e-scooters use Lithium Polymer batteries which require proper charge and discharge routine/control. But if you’re buying a UK-illegal product from Amazon…

Jumping a red light at the same time.

Whoosh....

No way you can fit one....
Or is there?
