Q
are electric vehicles safer

Electric vehicles (EVs) are considered safer in certain aspects due to their design and technology. Firstly, EVs have a lower center of gravity than traditional vehicles, which reduces the risk of rollover accidents. Secondly, the absence of a large gasoline engine means that EVs can have a larger crumple zone to absorb the impact in the event of a collision. Additionally, electric cars are subject to the same safety testing and regulations as conventional cars. However, EVs do present unique safety concerns, such as the risk of battery fires, which, although rare, can be difficult to extinguish. Moreover, EVs are quieter, potentially posing a risk to pedestrians who might not hear them coming. Despite these concerns, the overall trend suggests that EVs could offer a safer alternative as technology advances and safety measures improve.

Electric vehicles are considered safer for a number of reasons. Firstly. reduced fire risk is often cited as a major advantage. with electric cars being about 11 times less likely to catch fire than gasoline cars. However. it should be noted that claims of electric car batteries being more prone to fires are based on sensationalized news reports and not fact. Additionally. the weight and low center of gravity of EVs make them more stable and less susceptible to tipping over.
