My son got out and asked the driver if he was alright and the guy told him to pull over to the side. They did but he didn't. He cut over through 2 lanes and went the opposite direction. That sucked but I suppose that's a lot better than getting incinerated in a white hot electrochemical explosion.


A WHAT?? Do you KNOW much about electricity, batteries and electric vehicles? I DO! TONS!!!

What you show concern with when you say "but I suppose that's a lot better than getting incinerated in a white hot electrochemical explosion"! What chemicals in a Leaf are likely to explode? Do you KNOW what chemicals are in a Leaf? I DO
