At the end he gives advice on what to do if you are inside a carpark which catches fire or anywhere near a b urning vehicle or your vehicle catches fire.
I recommend seeing these recommendations as your IQ tends to take a holiday when you are unexpectedly put under extreme stress.

Worth the watch - certainly causes one to think about the possibility of fire.

My Peugeot 504 just started to catch fire. Some wiring had worn through its insulation.
Got the fire out in time, cutting the battery & didn't need to use either of my two 1.0kg or 1.5kg the BCF fire extinguishers.
In my current car I have cable cutters, two fire extinguishers (which I bash every month to free up settlement of powder). Also a handful of fire extinguishers around the home & a few in the common areas of the block of units as is required by State law.

This won't be the last gummint dept report that denies an EV vehicle was the cause "nothing to see here folks"
In the vid of the Landrover burning you can clearly see the battery off gassing.

Duh, another "gummint" conspiracy. <sigh>
Incident Details: The initial 999 call was 'received by Bedfordshire FRS Service Control at 20:47:20 hrs by Crew Manager Service Control B from the driver of the Range Rover that was on fire. When questioned by Service Control, the caller advised their car was a diesel Range Rover that it was located on the third floor.' 13 The subsequent fire investigation confirmed that the vehicle was powered by a diesel non-hybrid internal combustion engine.
The car park at the Luton airport had a Land Rover catch fire which subsequently destroyed the car park and a lot of vehicles parked inside.
See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zk0MWDsueMY for John Cadagon's commentary on it.
