A ship holding thousands of cars sank in the Pacific Ocean on Monday, weeks after a fire broke out on a deck that was holding electric vehicles – stoking industry concerns around transporting highly flammable batteries.
The 600-foot-long Morning Midas had been adrift at sea since June 3, when flames broke out and the crew was forced to abandon ship.
The ship was carrying 3,000 cars, including 800 EVs, when it sank in international waters approximately three miles deep, according to the ship’s owner, London-based Zodiac Maritime.
people – the most destructive creature on this earth
I guess a lot of local car lots will have some good sales on new cars.
Not really 10:18, people have been conditioned to think they are getting a good deal. All new cars and trucks are extremely over priced. Just look at the bottom line of the big 3 car manufacturers and you will see. Companies don’t need billions in profits to maintain a lucrative business. Greed is killing this country
Of course, the cars may smell a little musty.
Says a lot for EV batteries!
