So about a MILLION GAS car fires during the study period. But they go on to list every single EV incident they can find... worldwide! (about two dozen) Why don't they list the million gas fires? They also point out that the EV risk is being studied:

So I see tons of links to stories from 2011 talking about how the study is going to be done... but nothing reporting the results of the study. Could it be? ..."no news is good news?"
