A man in California narrowly escaped with his life after his Tesla vehicle erupted into flames while heading onto Highway 99 near Cosumnes River Boulevard.
"The issue with the electric vehicles is access to the batteries," said Cosumnes Fire Department Battalion Chief Robert Kasparian."The batteries are what are causing the enormous amount of heat buildup."Kasparian continued,"A lot of times fire departments will just let the vehicle burn until it’s down to the point where they can actually access the batteries and put water or firefighting foam on the batteries themselves.
Malla told KCRA that he was on his way home to pick up his family and drive to party when the fire erupted.Timothy Nerozzi is a writer for Fox News Digital.
